The Sen still got a little gas left in the tank. They just needed to warm up in the series. They just needed to warm up in the series. Uh, surprisingly enough, the Devils tying this one, holding on for dear life against the Carolina Hurricanes, 4-4 in that one as the third period starts. And then later uh well later tonight kind of during the exactly the same time half an hour later obviously the Kings play the Oilers and how good of the Kings look guys. My god Leafs had so many chances there. I I admittedly Jonathan didn’t watch the game. Um by the way guys shout out to our friends at Loose Line as well as our friends from Nine Mile.

I’m doing good, Andrew. How are you? How are you? Uh uh the wild game moved to 850. Ah uh well, we started early then, guys. We started early then. I was wondering why the puck had not dropped yet, but probably because the other game’s going late, this ends game. Good to see everyone by the way hanging out here. If you’re watching on X and/or Facebook, come over to YouTube, join our live chat here, vote in the poll question. Uh, let me know your prediction on who you think scores tonight first for the Minnesota Wild, especially if it’s not listed in the poll. What’s up, Jake? Good to see you. Also, let me How did you like uh how’ you like the different vibe? How do you like Z and Hoppy hosting one of the games? They might have to host another couple here moving uh moving forward. Um don’t worry, I’ll be covering most of them, but every now and then if one land if one lands on a Saturday, I’m not going to be here. I’m not going to be here. Yeah, I saw that. I have I have the stats up here now. I see with two minutes left in the game, which I guess is the reason why this one moved because I’m not watching on the ESPN feed right now. I actually have it on the on FanDuel as West Walls is in such an expert fashion. Look at this guy here. Doesn’t even need to draw on the screen. Oh, never mind. He’s doing it. He’s doing it. He’s going full Smartboard. 41 Vegas is your prediction. Hockey from home. Who do you think scores first for the Wild Hawk from home? That is the question. uh lineup here, ladies and gentlemen. I don’t know if you guys have been following it. I’m sure most of you who are on the who are subscribed to our YouTube channel. If you guys aren’t subscribed to the YouTube channel, please do so. We have clips of all our podcast drop every single day. Live streams uh minimum two days a week, but now with the playoffs, we’re going to be streaming a lot more. We got Baldi, Eric, Capri off, Zukarella, Hartman, Johansson, Merrill in for Zeve, Buham tonight alongside Bgoan, uh, Nikkujo, Felino very much like that line. Uh, Brazo, Rossy, and Shannon in Rossy back on the fourth line, but you know what? He’s been scoring. He’s been scoring up and up and down the lineup. Hawk from home voted Capriovv who’s been excellent in the playoffs thus far in just four games. Eight points, four goals, uh, eight assists. Boldly dominating in the playoffs as well. Four goals, six points in four games. And X been playing really, really good hockey. He’s just been uh, well, he’s just been doing everything but scoring. Everything but scoring. And his points don’t reflect how good he’s been. He’s been um making space, giving Capri off and Baldi and honestly the rest of his team room to work. What’s up Tori? 43 Wild. Yeah, let me know your score predictions as well as who you guys think is going to score first for the Wild here tonight. 43 Wild. They have been scoring, man. They have been scoring. I will say uh they have all been close games. So, it’s like the 42 or the 3-2 could even be like a 54 now. And and it shouldn’t even be a copout. I can’t predict a blowout in this series. I don’t And and especially this game. Especially this game. I don’t I don’t think I don’t think this game is going to be if if there’s a blowout game moving forward in the last three, assuming it goes to seven. I don’t think this one’s going to be the blowout game for either side. So, I’ll say I’ll say the Wild 54. I’ll say the Wild 54. 42. Uh, Caprio and Hurdle are my goal scorer predictions for their respective teams. All right. All right. Oh, it makes me sick. It makes me sick. Literally, the the Canucks parting ways with Talk It is even more crazy than uh than than Quebec basically deciding Canada’s election last night. That’s all I’m going to say. That’s all I’m going to say. 40 Leafs, by the way. What? It’s 40 Senators. Hawk from home. Sanders scored another one with only 47 seconds left. Screw the Leafs. Screw the Leafs. Think you were hired? I don’t think they they tried an old school type of coach who was who still coaching in Tortoella and he was too I don’t even want to say tough. You know what’s crazy? It’s just the system didn’t work with that group cuz all the players love him. The way like Bexa talks about how much he loved him. Even like this how much the Sadines respected him even though their scoring went from like 80 to 100 points to 40 that year. Haha. Screw the Leafs. I want nothing more than the Leafs to have zero success. Wild 32s says Jeremiah. What’s up Jeremiah? Go wild. Go wild. True. But they could have swayed him. They could have swayed him, man. Money talks, bro. Money talks. And the Aqualoonies have a lot of loonies. Okay. They may be a little loony. Them freaking blueberry farming ass [ __ ] but money talks, bro. Money talks. I only care about the wild. These are going to win Thursday. Just watch. I’m going to stream it if it’s a close game. Watch the sends come back. Watch the sends come back and Toronto media just goes into a forens, bro. I’m I’m sure Spoke Z and I uh would both just Well, I’m sure he would love that as much as as much as me. Capitals beat Montreal. Senators come back against the Leafs. Oh god, that would just be perfect. That would just be perfect. Yeah, I don’t watch much baseball at all to be honest. Unless I can go live and eat a bunch of arena food and drink beer. Not a big baseball guy. Now, if they were allowed to fight, I’d be a huge baseball fan, but not allowed to fight, so not really my thing. That’s cool. How awesome would it be? How awesome would that be? Go Minnesota Wild.

Wild win like by scoring six goals or win like by a margin of six because that would be crazy. That would be crazy. I was going to go to a Jay’s game with Luca, but I denied the offer. I mean, the uh Blue Jays tickets aren’t super expensive, though. Like MLB tickets aren’t expensive because there’s so there’s so many games. I’d love a win by six. I would like a win by six, too. By six goals. Ain’t no way. Yo, Trav, let me know and I will and I will uh I will see to it that you get the best of the best, my friend.

St. Paul Brewery’s F Cancer is one of my favorite beers. Let’s [ __ ] go. was up there when we destroyed Buffalo. Go on the hike and then go to the abandoned rail brewing by the way. [ __ ] that would be a that would be cool. Yeah, you have to hike to a brewery. I know a lot of people be like, “What? What?” But is that not the most hipster ass [ __ ] And I mean, now that now that I’ve wearing these circle ass Harry Potter looking glasses, I mean, I feel like that’s right up my alley. Trail mix hiking boots and beer. Uh, speaking of speaking of What a segue. What a segue. I actually posted my vlog of me hiking the West Coast Trail, which is about 50 odd milesish. Um, so if you guys are into that granola ass [ __ ] if you guys are hikers as well, I know it’s getting nice here in Minnesota and there’s may not there may not be a lot of mountains to hike, but there’s a lot of dope trails or if you’re going out west anytime soon. Uh, check it out. Check it out. Here it’s in the chat. Yad flexes on me by taking a pick from his hotel room of T-Mobile hours ago as as cool. I mean, I’ll go to Night’s game eventually, but kind of want to go to UFC there first or even boxing like if in fights in Vegas. All right, here we go, ladies and gentlemen. First period is upon us. Thank you guys so much for hanging out with us here tonight. Game five, best out of three now. And it would be awesome to come back to St. Paul up in the series. Close it out at home, ladies and gentlemen. All right, here we go. You also live in the fattest part of the state in all fairness for lack of terrain and lack of uh quick trips overall to be perfectly honest. All right, here we go. 1944 on the clock and this game is underway. The Minnesota Wild holding the puck in in the Vegas zone. I don’t know why this isn’t updating. My bad. Capriovv lost it here and it’s going to go back into the wild zone. Gustoen sends it around. Capriov. Oh, here we go. Here we go. Now we got the stats. Hey, what’s up Q or KQ? Losing it in the corner, but getting it back was the Wild trying to shot trying to get a shot on net, but that bounces off the skate of one of the Vegas players. And now Vegas has it up the left side. They send it into the zone. Fighting forward in the corner, but the Wild get it back. Vegas still has it. The hurdle shot deflected on net and Gustin’s going to glove this one up. 1849. Uh, got to get real higher terrain and quick trips per square mile. I know. I know. I just mean overall in the state. It’s not like again like I’m from BC in Canada, right? Like the Rocky Mountains were my freaking were in my backyard most of the time. So, not that I’m complaining. I I like it here. I like the lakes. I like the trails. It’s just a little different. But yes, the the more north you go, obviously the better, which is honestly where I would go. All right, puck has dropped. Vegas still has it in the wild zone up the left wall. Still battling for it. Not a lot of room for either of these teams to work. Hockey, you ain’t leaving. I ain’t [ __ ] leaving. I feel like Moose will score first. That’s a good I I debated putting that one on the list, but everyone was Oh, nice shot by Johansson, who honestly has had a good series thus far, ladies and gentlemen. Unable to control the rebound in Vegas with it. Still forchecking here is the Wild and tumbling to the ground of the Vegas Golden Knights. Hockey from home. I got work at 7. Northshore More Style then got to get dude. Honestly, like if I end up staying in Minnesota longterm, it’s going to be up in that area. Duth or north closer to Canada so I never have to get healthcare here. Oh, Canada. 1742 shot on net again. This one can deflect up and out. 1741. Yeah, you ain’t leaving hog from home. I am [ __ ] leaving. Johansson with a nice opportunity. Oh, and Felino, I didn’t realize how he deflected this on net. Nyquis also digging for it there. And Felen’s had a very I mean, Felen’s had a good series, too, guys. Hitting everything that moves. 1741 faceoffs to the left of Aiden Hill and also contributing three goals in the playoffs. What do you think, Hog from Home? I guarantee Hog from Home will be back here in like 10 minutes. 1733. Wild get it back in the zone. Shot well outside the circle. Deflected right. Vegas sends it up the boards. Wild still trying to keep it in the zone. Good stick at center, but Vegas holds on to it. Vegas now in the wild zone. Vegas cross ice pass the blue line shot puck bouncing deflected but controlled by Gustin Wild get it back and they send it up the right side now in center wild controlling but can’t get it into the Vegas zone with it as they reset top line looks like they’re changing for the wild yeah know it’s it’s good back and forth game to Start. Both teams not giving each other a lot of room to work. Yeah, gross. Maple Leafs logo. Vegas logo. 1635. Hurdle sends this one in. Oh, but he’s hit by Trenon. Wild behind the net. Broaddine taking a hit. I mean, Vegas are finishing all their checks here, guys. Vegas are finishing all their checks. pressuring by Vegas backhand unable to get on net. Still controlling sends it on net and Gustin being sharp deflecting that out with his stick and still able to get this puck out as the wild all the way back into the Vegas zone. They’re going to set up. Yo yo, what’s up Hank? Good to see you. Good to see you. How’s your weekend? How’s your day going? Wild look at the reset out of their zone. They send it up the wall diving to make sure that this stayed out of their zone was the Wild. Vegas had to reset. They bring this back and shot from the left side. Gossison has looked sharp early. No, not during playoffs. Hog from home. Not during playoffs. Yeah, it drives me nuts. shot that goes wide. Battling at the side of the net, puck trickles out into the neutral zone and Vegas backhands it back up the ice. Wild do a good job of poking this one deep into the Vegas zone and I imagine the Wild are finishing their change. Yeah, let’s go. By the way, if you guys are watching on Facebook or XT Twitter, come over to YouTube, join our live chat here. Duth was named uh preliminary cipher world junior to save you a look in your inbox. Ah, let’s go. I thought it was going to be at uh Maruchi and uh and the X, but it’s it’s going to be where the Bulldogs play. Dude, honestly, I won’t even go to any of the games at the X. What I’m interested to see if they’re still going to put team Canada at the X or the US at the X, right? probably US, but like maybe they bank on traveling Canadians or maybe they’re just not allowed to travel at that point. Who knows? I’m kidding. Oh, so happy. So happy. I Oh, I want the Leafs to choke this series so bad. It would be one of the most beautiful things on the planet. Capitals beating Montreal. Goodbye Montreal. And freaking the sends coming back against Elise would be that [ __ ] beautiful [ __ ] What’s up [Music] KQ? 1433 puck trickles back in the Vegas zone. Shots 54 for the Wild Gudro with it as he’s bumped by Vegas. Battle in the corner. Wild keeping this in or Lord and Savior Freddy Gudro. Back to Caprio. Cabrio off shot. Faber holding the line. He gets his pocket picked and here comes Vegas. Beautiful pass. Vegas has it right side shot. Beautiful save by Gustin and that goes up, bounces. Vegas still has it. Blue line. They send it up and around. Caprio chips it up, but Vegas still has it. Left corner. Sends it back down into the corner behind the net. sends in seven. They won against today. Let’s go. Yes. Let’s go. Let’s go. Cautford Christian. Let’s go. 1336. And again, the Vegas Golden Knights are still pressuring. Wild almost got it out again, but Vegas right back to pressuring. Here come the Wild. Capriov got it out into the Vegas zone at least. And this line’s going to change. 1318 Vegas right back into the wild zone. Wild able to slow things down for them. No. See, I told you hockey from home would wouldn’t uh leave. Oh, shot by Vegas. Doesn’t get through. Minnesota right side. Puck is sent back down into the Vegas zone. Yeah, Baldi was at the end of a long shift there, so he skates off. What does Toronto do best talking from home? Choking the playoffs. Choking the playoffs again. Vegas shot that goes wide. Pucker goes back into the neutral zone. Vegas gets it back. Pass between the defenseman is both teams going to change. 12:23. Wild game, but I was streaming uh UFC and KSW that day, so I wasn’t paying too much attention to it. Oh yeah, Trenon throwing the body around. Just watched like extended highlights or no, I did rewatch it. I watched extended highlights and re-watched it on times two speed while I was working. So Hoppy and Z were covering that one. Wild West Florida Panthers. Ze Middleton blew it for us. And there’s a reason Z is not in the lineup. 1223. Uh, is the score still 44? I think Hurricanes close it out. 1213. Yeah, because I have the tab open with the with the score up. Um I think Hurricanes closed it out. I mean, pretty much every goalie is huge [Music] now. Oh, high stick. Oh, here we go. Wilder going to get a power play as Hartman caught a stick in the face. Yo, what’s up, Adam? I am drinking a New Zealand Joyide West Coast IPA from our friends at Loose Line Brewing. Shout out to them. They sent the soda pot home with a care package after we went and visited them a couple weeks ago. Located in Plymouth near the Quick Trip. They’re awesome. Let’s go, baby. Here we go. Boston Celtics will Super Orlando Magic. Nice. like Jason Vorhees in the net just standing there all ominous. It’s funny because like my dad and this is uh I I I joke with my dad. I’m like, “Dad, like you’ve been in North America longer like than your time both in Iran and Mexico now.” Um and he still is just like and he’ve been watching hockey since he’s got here and he’s still like he’s convinced Nile to just plop a sumo wrestler there and he’s like buddy doesn’t even have to move. I’m like, “Dad, like the shots will still like just go right under the flab still.” Like, he doesn’t believe me. He doesn’t believe me. Bruce Senz will be uh the five team comeback down three. Oh. Oh, very nice. Very nice. Yeah, if you’re in, like I said, if you guys are in Minnesota, um Plymouth area, I think it’s like the only craft brewery in Plymouth. Really cool spot. Really cool. Right. Uh right off the Loose Line Trail, too. So, um, if you want to stop there after or mid bike ride as well, it’s nice. Sends in seven. I mean, I’m going to give No, I’m not going to stream the Oilers Edmonton game tonight. It’s It’s on essentially the same time. Hog from home. I don’t know yet. I don’t know yet. We’ll see. It depends who’s left hog from home. It depends who’s probably the Capitals. I’ll probably go hardcore on the Capitals personally because I just like [ __ ] I love Ovie. I loved Obie, Mike Green, Alex Semon, and Backstrom growing up. So, like that’s what gave me a interest in the Capitals. Um, I probably won’t follow them as much when, you know, when Oie, the last of those guys, is gone, but all right, here we go. Wild power play. Yo, what’s up, RJ? Good to see you. Maybe on to something. Where’s the failed MN lineman and heavyweight wrestlers that can skate make them goalies? New trend, dude. He’s seriously cuz he cuz he’s like I’ve been watching hockey since like the 80s, man. And he’s like it’s all and so he’s just like tiny humans. I’m like well now they’re like 6’4 65 like Swedes and Fins and Russians. He’s like regardless. He’s like get a 400 pound freaking Japanese sumo wrestler and just plop them there or just go freaking certain parts of the United States. You can find blob suma wrestlers as well. Just saying. Wisconsin, we’re close. Oh, no way. Rush from the Vegas Golden Knights short-handed and Carlson scores. Second short short uhhanded goal of the series for the Vegas Golden Knights. 11:35 on the clock. And what a k I’m just going to say this. What a [ __ ] kick in the balls to and and and and pardon my French. All right, pardon my French, but what a [ __ ] kick in the balls, dude. What a Yeah, Carlson just rushing there. Holds Capri off. Faber doesn’t drop all the way to the ground. Sorry, holding a hurdle. Hurdle holding Capri off. Finds Carlson. Oh my goodness. Emotion. And just like that. Just like that. Here comes the Minnesota Wild Eck with it. E to Zukarelloo. Zukarelloo up. Capri off scores. Well, honestly, can you really even celebrate too much after that one? It’s It’s We’re back to square one. The power play meant nothing. The power play meant nothing. But Capri got a goal. So, there we go. There we go. Jeez, Sal. That was a greedy pass by Capriovv. Wasn’t much there. Baldi obviously pretty bad at playing twoon-one for the first time in his life probably. What’s up, Sean Costco? Please, please. God, I man I if I could I would. I’d go I’d go with the Yeah, I’d go every single night. There we go. Cool. I bought a Garnett Boston Celtics jersey to troll my Timberwolves friends back in the day. Baldi’s turn next. I mean, he scores pretty much every game. So, all right, here we go. Middleton with it. See, I told you guys Hawk from home win leave. We’re going to have a whistle in the Vegas zone. Shot seven apiece, by the way. Let’s take a look at the hits. Eight for the Wild, six for the Vegas Golden Knights. So, team still going ham, finishing their checks. Dude, I’m actually um back to Denial’s commenter. I’m actually more stoked that one of the brackets is going to be in Duth versus Maruchi. 1053 Vegas with a shot from the blue line blocked and pucks to go back in the neutral zone. Let’s go. If you get a picture, uh, tag me in it, VIP Sports Talk, Twitter or Instagram. I’ll like it. I’ll share it. I will give you a shout out on my next podcast or whatever video on the channel. Stream on the channel. Minnesota is such a fun team. I would hate to see them go in round one. Oh, me too. Me too. 1021. They’re not filled with stars up and down the lineup. I’ll say that. But they’re they’re a depth team. They’re a depth team. 1017 and we’re going to have an icing by Vegas. Face off back into the Vegas zone. Top line still out there. The channel should be I I won’t be here. I have to I’m going to be away on the weekend for work and I’m leaving Thursday night. But uh either Hoppy or one of uh Z of or Brett is likely going to tag in. But we’ll let you guys know in a post uh uh like tomorrow. I would if I was around. I was originally uh supposed I’m actually going up to Duth for work. Speaking of um so if I was I was originally going to leave Friday, but because we’re leaving Thursday now, as far as I know, um the channel is uh is aiming to stream the game though. Uh 944 puck coming back up the ice for Vegas. Good defense. See you later, Hank. 933. Baldi with it at center, loses it as the Wild make their change. Do you think the Lions were more in favor of Las Vegas due to the total numbers they put through the season without Capriov? Seems to be freaking [ __ ] even series. Oh, I I mean like Vegas just has overall I think more talented players whereas like the Wild up and down the lineup have have guys who can you know in a pinch play up the lineup as we’ve seen. So like the Wild like for example like the Wild’s fourth line could be any other team’s third line sort of thing, right? Especially since like Rossy who’s like a second line center is centering that line. Um, but like Rossy’s far from like a star where like Vegas has like but like they got stone hurdle I like enough said like already you know like sure Capriovv is probably a level above them all but and and you can make an argument that Baldi is playing like one right now but like all those guys are like legit. Carlson’s really good and you know and then like yeah the Wild have really good defense and de and depth on defense you know you can put as much as uh Chisel and Merrill might piss some of the fan base off and Melo probably more than others like to have two guys plus Zim a top prospect coming in like just there that you can rotate and shoot maybe maybe Bug Gojan is so bad they take him out who knows uh hopefully not uh they’re just a very well-built playoff off team, I think. Well, just like obviously you want more stars, but like as good as you can get for a team with depth for the playoffs, right? Cuz there’s other playoff teams that like topheavy and then fall off and have like a really good goalie that they lean on. Um whereas the Wilder, they’re if they click on all cylinders, they they can beat anyone or they can they can make games tough for any of the top teams uh to win for sure. But it’s one of those things where it’s like if if one or two parts fall, it’s tough for just Capri off, just Baldi to carry this team back. Whereas, man, there’s there’s Vegas that like and not that Eel’s been doing it in this series, but uh definitely up there is like one of one of the absolute studs in the league. All right, back from TV timeout here. But I mean shoot man. Balding Capriov getting respect much like this entire wild team I think nationally as even in Canada and on the national broadcast in the United States and just fans who are like even some casual hockey fans who who watch all playoffs but mostly just follow their team are like [ __ ] man like the Wilder they’re a team. And I’m like yeah dude like when healthy they’re a team. We’re a team. Uh 9 minutes on on the clock. Whoops. Thank you, Hawk from home. 852. Hannneathan shot goes wide for Vegas. Begoian sends it up the right side. Puck still kept in the corner by Vegas. Marilyn Begoian working on the back end to try to get this one out. hit traffic and that doesn’t get to Gusen and the Wild are able to get this into the neutral zone. They’re going to change. Hockey from home with more lies, ladies and gentlemen. I’m not sure who that is. Uh Florida Panthers. 810 and Wild gain the zone, but Vegas gets the puck back. a big hit by freaking the Wild, but the camera left uh the visual of it and moved to the left so quickly we didn’t get to see the end of it. Vegas with an opportunity there. Wild get the puck back. Wild up through the Vegas zone. Tried to pass right to his man at center, but this puck’s going to bounce all the way back into the wild zone. And we’re going to have ice saving 744. We have a tie game here. Wild G like basically made their power play moot. Gave up a shorty and then Capri immediately scores after which sweet game basically back to square one. Sounds like a 6:30 start time on Thursday. I mean, look, if I’m if I get to Bent Paddle in time, I’ll do it. I highly doubt I will though. 740. Oh, shot off the post deflection, but the Wild still can’t get it well out of his creases. Aiden Hills. The Wild battle for behind the net. Right side corner sent up the walls. And this is going to go all the way back to Minnesota Wild defender in his own zone. He sends it cross ice. Capri off with it. Shot. Saved by Aiden Hill. Rebound. Baldi tried to get it. Loses it. And here comes Vegas up the left side. Ah, cool, cool, cool. 712 puck trickles up. Capriovv sends it around the net. Vegas centering pass. 654. Faber with it. Turnover. Uhoh. Vegas into the corner. Shot from well outside the circle and score. Jeez. Damn. Mark Stone and Jack Eel having a night indeed so far. 636 and Vegas up a goal on the Wild. There’s still a lot of game, dude. There’s still a lot of game. Now, if this is the third period, I would agree with you. But what a pass. I mean, that’s the second battle on Capriov that Vegas has won and actually been able to capitalize on. What a shot and a deflection there. might come back. It’s only one goal. It’s only one goal. Still still in the first period. Oh, you mean might come back as uh they’re challenging uh they’re challenging it here. Oh, here they are going to challenge the Minnesota Wild is going to challenge this one. Fingers crossed, guys. Fingers crossed here. Risky indeed. They’re looking at it. 6 uh 636 remaining in the first period by the way and the refs are looking at it. It’d be a lucky uh three [ __ ] here only fathers. Yeah. Come on guys. Like the video. Like the videos. Let’s try to get to at least Oh, it is a good goal. It is a good goal. Are we done? Hot takes. It’s the first period, man. There’s a party. Minnesota Wild Ice. Like, I’m not saying that the Wild couldn’t lose this game. Obviously, they could lose. They They could have got swept in this series, right? But they didn’t. And it’s only the first period. If this was the third period, I’d agree. Done. But, uh, far from over. Far from over. I do like how they’re showing, uh, or they do show or they have been showing the like the room. Anyways, uh getting back to it here, ladies and gentlemen. Getting back to it here. Our PK sucks is definitely going to be 31. We shall see. We shall see. I We say that in every game. PK sucks. PK sucks. PK sucks. Yet, they’ve still been able to be in this series. 636 and the Wild send this back into the Vegas zone. Goalie interference, but it was it wasn’t goalie interference. Like Vegas rightfully won that. 618 on the clock and the Wild send this back into the neutral zone. PTSD is real. Dice season wild. 559. Good PK so far. 115. And here comes Vegas. Blue line right side shot. Can it get through traffic? No. But Vegas gets the rebound. Yo, what’s up, Reaper Jones? Good to see you. Good to see you. One-time that goes wide and Eel backhand slot Theodore back to Eel. What’s up, Anthony Vegas in six 522 Stone centering pass. Oh, looks like it went above the goal on that one. Trigles behind Vegas. still with it. Eel shot doesn’t get through and oh, it does get through. The nice save by Gusen and this goes down the length of the ice. 23 seconds on the clock. Go wild. How’s it going, Reaper Jones? How’s your evening going into overtime? Your New Jersey Devils still hanging on by a thread. 446 and the Wild send this back down the length of the ice. And the Wild kill off the Vegas power play, but Vegas on the rush here and they lose it. And they break out of the box. And oh, Aiden Hill with the moves, kicking out that right pad. Able to get his right skate on it. Tremendous save by Aiden Hill. I mean, it was a good power play kill. Only down by one. Man, you guys are a fickle fan base. Come on. It’s by It’s one goal. Again, if this is the third period, I’d agree. And a nice save by Gusen. Still a lot of hockey to be played, boys. Still a lot of hockey to be played. This isn’t even game seven. So close. Edmonton versus LA. Who do you think is going to win? Oh, LA. LA. God, I hate seeing them facing the [ __ ] Brass Bonanza. You’re a Devil fan as well. I I I am convinced you just love every single team in every single league except Nashville, right? You don’t like Nashville. Uh you don’t understand how much pain this team’s, bro. I’m a [ __ ] Canucks fan. What are you talking about? My city’s burned itself to the ground twice and they just let talk it walk and and Hughes is going to walk next. All right. I twice. Twice the city’s been burnt down in my lifetime. Okay. Seen this movie before. I love the National Predators. I thought you didn’t like them because of Marsha Show. Or no, you do like Marshall Show. I can’t keep up, my friend. I can’t keep up. Anyways, if this was game seven and this was the third period, trust me, guys, I’d be joining in the the pity party. But there’s still a lot of hockey to be played. Now, could the roof uh collapse? 100%. 100%. But it’s only one goal. It’s only one goal. And the the the penalty kill was uh well, the penalty was killed off, so that’s good. That’s good. Can being a Canucks fan, we feel pain, brother. Yeah, it’s sick, dude. I I am convinced of like I’m convinced I’m like never going to see them in the playoffs again. No, with Hughes there. I mean, maybe he can carry them at some point, but it’s it’s not been good. It’s not been good. But anyways, this isn’t a Canucks stream. This is a wild stream, baby. This is a wild stream. Let’s get back to the action here. Well, if anything, uh, it’s more plausible that a change is to occur sooner than later. Jonathan Marshall, favorite national predator player. All right, the Rossi out there. Oh, it makes me [ __ ] sick, dude. I think it’s I think it’s crazier like get I I think it’s this this could be a poll question. I think it’s crazier that the Canucks let him walk uh than Quebec basically deciding Canada’s election. Again, PTSD talking. This is why Minnesota has so many breweries. Exactly. That I will say I’m okay with that. Robert Thomas is good. Four minutes on the clock and the Wild have it. Baldi or sorry, Trenan sends it to Rossy. I don’t know why I said Baldi there. And Rossi can’t score. Puck brought in offside. We’re going to puck outside the wild zone here. Good shift for the fourth line. Uh, gotta pull out of weekend’s rendev ladies on the way to Florida. My kid has his first uh, judo shi to earn a new belter stripe. At the very least, I got Hey, no worries, dude. No worries. The Canadian election was so [ __ ] It was pretty fun to watch actually yesterday. I have to say I enjoy I like I enjoy how that one works more than the one um south of the border. But but yeah, [ __ ] Quebec, dude. I that’s it’s crazy. It’s absolutely insane. RIP NDP 34 on the clock. Definitely more entertaining and uh more interesting than the last run. 324. RIP NDP. RIP PPC. RIP all the box wine that Elizabeth May is going to down [ __ ] this week there. A boys 310 Vegas up the right side. Puck triggers behind the net and be Gojian gets it back. By the way, I just got to say shout out to everybody watching here tonight. Appreciate you all. So, you’re assuming that I vote NDP and liberal. Interesting. Hot takes. Don’t always assume things, man. Cuz you don’t know [ __ ] about me, brother. 237 and an opportunity by Vegas again. Good save by Gustin as this trickles up Wild controlling it up through center. Nathan Walker out of Australia played for the Capitals for a little bit. I’m not sure where he plays now. What’s up Sean Moody? 222 and this doesn’t get through to Vegas goalender Aiden Knight and Wild come back to the side. Shovel this puck up in front and nice save by Gusen. [Music] They want to so bad. Except they got a little butt hurt this time around. Marco J Flory should start the most playoff experience. No. Sure, but like he’s 40. I mean, Vancouver lost a lot of its NDP support yesterday on the island and in uh Vancouver. 213. It’s cheaper to move to Texas. 207 Vegas shot tip on net and another save by Gusen. 40 the new 35. Look, I’m not saying the flurry hasn’t been good this year. I just think Gustin’s been way better as fellow Minnesota. It’s weird. I don’t mean many liberals around here. I mean, motans are pretty just normal people. You know what I mean? So, dare I say center. They’re just normal people who have values from both end. Oh, weird. Like most of the people that most of us hang out with, not those psychos who are just miserable, miserable people, man. Woman in 50 seconds on the clock. Hurdle intercepting back to the blue line. Right side shot from outside the blue line. Not sure if that hit a post or deflected off a player, but Vegas been pushing the pace here in the final five minutes of this first round or first period. Oh, almost said it. 124. 115. Yeah, that’s when I went to Alberta during the oil boom. Obviously, you talk about Texas, but it was good times. It was good times. Actually, it was shitty times. It was shitty times, but I’m not in the Leafs chat. Why would I do that? I would rather jump off the highest building in Minnesota than ever [ __ ] or Minneapolis than ever enter leaf chat 107. Well, again, liberals in the states and Canada means two different [Music] things. So again, the states is only two two parties whereas Canada it’s a little different. Shock G is a little too wide. 104. Faber tried to find someone up front. 55 seconds and unable to get this puck back to the blue line with a wild intercepted by Vegas. One-on-one. Good job by Freddy Gro getting that back. He eats a hit in the corner but sends this around. 30 seconds remain. 33 seconds. 25 seconds. 22. Yeah, I know. Americans are weird like that. Get triggered off words. 14 seconds. Shot. Save by Gusen. Again, Americans are weird like that. 15 seconds remaining. Gusen, man, really, really carrying this team in the last five, six minutes uh minutes. Wilder played pretty good defense, but he’s come up clutch to keep them in this and keep it a onegoal game. Damn it. Oh, are they out now? No, it still say I mean it still says OT on the clock or on the update that I’m looking at. And that’s going to do it. This puck brought back into the Minnesota zone. And that’s going to do it for the first uh period. Vent away, guys. You guys can get triggered in the chat by words. That’s fine. That’s That’s on you guys. That’s on you guys. I’m just going to make fun of you for it. So, as long as you can take it. As long as you can take it. All right. End of the first period, ladies and gentlemen. I’d say up until I mean, okay, there’s a few things we got to go over here. There’s a few things we got to go over here cuz yes, Vegas better team this period. Can’t really debate it. You look at the stats. You look at the eye test. You look at the short-handed goal that they capitalized on the Wilds power play, but other than that one blunder and other than that final five minutes, uh I would say that the Wild played a pretty good game. Like this game so far has kind of reminded me of game one. It was like they each kind of neutralized each other or got like a shot at one end. Puck went back to the other end and they got a shot on or they just like each weren’t able uh to I don’t know make any space available for either tight checking a lot of hits and we’ll go over their hits here in a moment. Um but yeah, other than them again blunder on their power play, able to score right after bring it back to an even playing field and then honestly that last five minutesish where Vegas was just pressure, pressure, pressure, and they did a good job of at least getting it out, forcing Vegas to reset. But there were some key moments when Gustin just had to be clutch, which hey, they’re going to get through this series. Shoot. They’re going to get if they go deep in the playoffs, it’s going to be because Gustin has to uh has to stand on his head. Has I don’t want to say be forced to, but just has to be clutch more often than none. And he was able to keep this close going into the second period. Um, do I have any siries? No, Tori. I don’t have any sirly, to be honest. I I don’t get many sirly beers. Um, I’ve only been to the brewery once. I go to a lot more smaller ones and kind of support the smaller ones. Not to say I don’t like going to that like uh huge brewery. Um but I have to I think I have to go there next for like a couple events cuz the pizza place that’s um that’s on one of the upper levels is really good. And I enjoyed um like some of the the hoppier West Coast ones that they have. I think they’re Isn’t their like flagship beer? What’s it called? Oh, like Furious or something? Isn’t that one a pretty hoppy IPA? Uh, my ESPN Plus isn’t letting me watch the game. God damn it. Would love to see Middleton join uh the rush a little bit less. Bogle playing on a power play is decent. Uh because he’s willing to block the puck with his face if needed. We need better zone entries and to win more puck battles on the boards. Uh yo, shout out to Eric. Eric doing God’s work. No way. Hell Hines goes back to five forwards power play. Damn Shankin [ __ ] block. Yeah, still 44 uh Devils Hurricanes right now in overtime. Okay, we’re going to take a quick break and then we’re going to bring on Hoppy to get his thoughts on this period as well. It’s a website pushback. It’s a website. Uh here I’ll write in chat. I’ll write in chat. What’s up big ticket? Uh during the break here, I’ll write in chat a few few places where you guys uh can find it. Uh quick break. We’ll bring Hoppy on during uh this first intermission here to go over uh this first period and continue to take your guys’ comments on the other side. [Music] [Music] Oh, hey. [Music] Oh my people like you’re making a heft now like last year like yeah that one’s called the 11th hour. It’s kind of just a cheeky um play on that we kind of release it later than most people towards the end of the summer. I wanted to kind of be in there in that cusp between summer and fall. And now with summer’s lasting longer and longer these days and we’re in September and it’s 80s, it’s still a viable option. Oh, nice. Central division team that I love to love, the Nashville Predators, of course. [Music] And we are back live here on the Sodapod. Uh Vegas leading two to one as we are in the first intermission and we got the state of Hoppy live here. Most important question, what are you drinking tonight, my friend? Definitely not Sirly. I’m drinking uh the West Coast IPA from our friends at Loose Line. And it’s it’s quite it’s got a lot more of a kick than what was uh described, but I dig it cuz I like the hoppy stuff. But um very juicy, but with a very bitter aftertaste. Nice for me. Different turnney, same flow. Oh, let’s go. Let’s go. I got I got two two cans in the background of this uh of my of my bedroom here. I’m uncomfortable saying how many cans I have sitting here, but uh yeah, I I just I think Sirly is so overrated and I hope that Dreker retaliates to them opening the bruhala a Grand Forks spot by opening a Dreker location in Dinky Town. I’d be so happy. I just thought you meant because like their brewhalla could go like headtohead. I kind of like Dreers better to be honest. Well, no. So you have are you aware that Sirirly is opening a location in Grand Forks? No, that is what I’m referring to. Okay. Okay. Which is like that feels like you’re going into someone else’s territory a little bit. I just finished watching Better Call Saul. So I’m just thinking just like dealing meth territory, brewery territory. It’s all good. Who’s the tuco out of the Okay, no. No. Let’s not get too far into this. How about that? First period. first period. Uh kind of reminded me of game one uh in the you know it when they were playing in in this way when they had blunders they they were big blunders but the rest of it like other than the last five minutes of the first period and obviously the power play and again Capri off scoring kind of made it moot but big blunder there. It was kind of like game one where like both teams didn’t really have space to do much and if they did it was just back and forth, you know, shot for shot or both teams would just lose the puck at the blue line and kind of reset and I thought it was pretty even. Um, and that’s kind of where I drew the similarity from game one because that’s kind of how I saw game one overall. Yeah. Uh, a little bit of a weirdo take here. Um, and completely understand if people aren’t on board. I if I have to take either like no goals out of that power play or them scoring a shorty and then the Wild responding and getting that power play goal, I’ll take the shorty and the power play goal four. At least we can prove that we can actually score on the power play. And hopefully that like gives them some kind of motivation to be more disciplined on the kill. And let’s be real, like there’s never an excuse for a short-handed goal. Eel went beast mode on that goal. like very well executed. Should Capri off have been able to handle him? Sure. But like hard to argue with what Eichel did to fight through it. Um I think also got kind of lost his battle in the second second goal, too. But again, just like yeah, Stone has been a beast in this first period as well. And that’s uh uh hot takes in the chat is he was basically like Eeko and Stone are playing well, we’re [ __ ] That is correct. Thank you, Alex Mleti, for basically jinxing them into being good at hockey again. Um that I mean that let’s be real like there’s no way they were going to be quiet the whole series. That that’s that’s just not how it works unless you play for the Wild. Uh sorry, we’re positive now. Um yeah, dude, I’m not freaking out about how the first period went. Like definitely things I’d like to have seen done differently. Zukarella should have scored that goal or at least put up a better attempt in doing so. And biggest thing for me is what the [ __ ] are we doing challenging goalie interference there? Like that. Yeah, that was pretty. That is so misplaced. I I need to know if that was like a vibe check on Hines or if that was actually our video guys saying review it because that needs to be punished. That was If that was the video, guys, if that was the video, guys, that’s bad. Uh, that was the video, guys. I think we have a a new least favorite members of the Wild organization trumping the Wild Medical staff. So, that’s tough. Um, but I mean, yeah, all in all, not the worst period ever. Um, you I’d love to see the Rossi line actually be deployed as a third line instead of a fourth line because weird. They’re like the only ones that are kind of going. But I Yeah, it the sky isn’t falling. That wasn’t the worst period we could have had. Hopefully really I’m going to judge it a lot based on the reset and how they come out the second period. Um, but yeah, I don’t know. There’s anything else more specific you want to get into. I’m I’m in. But I also was like very on and off paying attention because Zack Phillips is absolutely losing his mind right now on the postgame stream. He is unwell. Beautiful. Beautiful. I figured you’d enjoy that. Yeah. Oh man. Like I I want nothing more than a lease collapse senator’s comeback. I enjoy the passion. Oh, him and I like would probably end up fighting. put the two of you in a room and like you’d probably be best friends until like it’s kind of like when you go to Thanksgiving and you’ve got the family that’s like torn on politics, right? And you guys are great. You’re having an awesome time having some drinks, playing some games, and all of a sudden someone brings up the Toronto Maple Leafs and then it turns into like half the room is crying, half the room wants to fight, couple people puking in the corner. like that would be the path of you and Zach getting together, but like remove the Maple Leafs thing and it’s like yeah, you two are both like so friendly basic Canadian like but uh yeah, being on the opposite side of the most decisive or divisive topic in Canada, it’s tough. It’s tough. Yeah. But yeah, I I very much need that game that one to go to seven. And it’s probably funnier. Wait, what? Unmapped brewing Soviet Slayer Imperial Stout. That’s uh that’s a back channel, bro. If if Unmapped is cocking back channel with the Soviet Slayer, we need to go out and like do some damage. Let’s go TP him. Let’s go full tukco. You gotta get you got to get off. Yeah, I I literally just finished Better Call S like like the other day. Anyways, uh Hines’s not having a couple of good games. Questionable lineup and minutes. Uh and the challenge. Yikes. I This is I I am not saying at all like a stance or what I think. Sorry, Backsh. Okay, we don’t have to break. Okay. Okay. No, big ticket. Thank you for clarifying. I was getting a little worried there, but uh Soviet Slayer, great pick, dude. Great pick. Um I really don’t know who makes the lineup decisions when Dean was the coach. I was kind of under the impression that Garren made those decisions here with Hines. I don’t know who’s actually making the decisions. That’s not saying like lineup changes like within the game, whatever, how the guys are being deployed, but just like who’s in, who’s out, what’s the initial line chart look like. I can’t confidently say which side that’s coming from. I’d love to know, but I don’t think we’ll ever actually know. Yeah, cuz I mean, Billy’s going to say it’s obviously, oh no, I let Hines make all the decisions. Like, okay, dude. Least fans are also fans of Pinocha. 100% correlation monsters. All of them. All of them. Every single one. Every single one. Yo, Guy Ben Singh, uh, good to see you, sir. I remember, uh, I remember talking to you back in the THPN days. Uh, come over to our YouTube chat. Come over to our YouTube chat. Reaper said, “Hey, that’s my family on Football Rivalry week on Thanksgiving in the US.” Uh, got I got to know Reaper Jones. What’s the football rivalry? Because that could like He’s down south. He’s in Alabama. So, Well, right. But so is it is it Auburn, Alabama? Is it like NFL? Like the teams involved definitely change the dynamic of what that hate looks like. Mhm. Like you can say that in hockey too, right? Like the hate between Pittsburgh and Philly is different than the hate between Edmonton and Calgary. That’s not saying that one is like superior to the other. It’s more flavor, different vibe. Yeah, dude. I’m in the middle of that rivalry and I wouldn’t even make that claim. I think those two are actually very comparable. That’s why I picked them. I I think even today it’s still there. Whereas the the like we saw we saw it in that one series with Edmonton and Calgary and like a little bit with casting and Kachchuck, but I feel like it’s more forced than like natural which like we we heard it was in the 80s, right? where like there was they actually employed more cops at those games because it was that [ __ ] crazy because they knew like in in that the Saddle Dome and uh the former Rex or actually I don’t even know what it was before but um dude I’m kicking myself too. I I wanted so badly to bet Carolina when they were down three-0 but I just like I I wasn’t watching the game. I was locked in to Leaf sends and I just like whenever I go into a game with a strong opinion and then like it gets turned on its head in the first period, that’s when I put money down and you get your returns. But it’s just I I can’t do it when I’m not watching the game and I don’t understand why it’s three-0, you know. Right. Right. It was It was so close. Uh is it a Soviet who is a slayer or one who slays Soviets? It is one who slays Soviets. Cosgrove confirmed. But we might we might be in on creating one that is of the other variety as well. I don’t know. We’ve talked about that for like three or four years. So I’ll believe Yeah. Well, I’m spending a whole weekend with one of the owner owners, so lots of time to We’ve spent a lot of weekends with him. That doesn’t mean it’s happening. I I believe that he has intentions of it happening. That doesn’t mean that I believe it’s going to happen. Yeah. And also, yeah, Reaper, that makes it really interesting that rivalry because it’s a lopsided rivalry, right? And that makes it so fun because it’s like really you don’t have a lot to lose when you’re Georgia Tech and you go in and it’s like, well, it is Georgia. You still have the hate. It still burns deep, but when Georgia Tech wins, the roof’s coming off like that house isn’t safe. Uh yeah, Connor, that they are setting up a whole facility out there in Grand Forks, which again, anyone that picks Shirley over Dreer, kudos to you. Like, I guess we can be friends, but we’re definitely not like hanging out and grabbing beers because it’s not even comparable. Uh Jonathan saying he was at Stone Brewery in uh Esido, San Diego over spring break. That sounds amazing. I haven’t done the brewery seeing in California cuz I when I visited California I was too young I was too young. So see for me I’ve had like some of the stone brewing stuff that like gets distributed but I need to have what’s in the tap room to really see how good a place is. Um so I’m like dude at some point a deep deep California run is going to be very necessary. Yeah. Well you just but at that point you just got to do the whole west coast. She’s got to do like Canada and Yeah, dude. Cuz I can totally just bank two months to do that. That Yeah, bring the kids. Bring the kids. No responsibilities, nothing. Yeah. Um, hot takes, there’s no heart on the Leafs. How do they draft all these players? Uh, then choking big moments. It’s It’s the most beautiful thing. Let’s be real, though. Let’s be real. We’re excited. We got what we wanted. There’s chaos in that series. that one game. I’m not gonna let that be the like be all end all on whether or not these guys can make the push back. No. No. For sure. Like especially I do genuinely think this is a different Leafs team. Do I think they’re winning the cup? No. Yeah. Do I think this is like a team that’s built differently, guys are playing different. I think Matty N is a man-possessed. I think they’ve got a different coach that makes a huge difference. Even though people don’t want to give credence to it, they’re good. Yeah. No, for sure. I will not give credence to it. Johnson left. Like I will say I don’t hate on the players. I just hate on the organization. But anyways, uh I’m not it’s not even a matter of hate or no hate. It’s just like I Let’s see how game six goes. If they fall on their face in game six, like okay, like I’m with you. Uh looks like we the puck just dropped, dude. So true, Jonathan. We are 7 seconds in and McNab already took a penalty. Guinness in Ireland is so good. Now, it wasn’t as good as it was like built up to be, but way better than it is here in the States. Although, I’ve heard rumors that they’re actually going to build like a brewing facility. I think it was North or South Carolina. So, maybe that would make stuff a lot better, whatever gets distributed out here for tap consumption. But, we’ll see. Dare to saying it’s right in his backyard. He walks there. Used to be really good in the last 10 years though. San Diego County has the best beer scene. San Diego Tori. We’ll see you out there. Oh, let’s go. Yeah. Well, we’ll definitely keep you guys posted when we each make our trip out there for sure. Reaper. Yeah, Reaper is a big beer guy as well. He always tags me in uh all the he tags me pictures he he takes when he goes on his craft brewery. Um, hey guys, thank you so much for joining uh during intermission. We’re gonna get back to the focus coverage here. Hoppy, we’ll see you uh in the next break. And guys, keep the comments coming. Uh, we appreciate you guys. Uh, Wild just got a opportunity on net here. We’re going to have a face off in a moment. But uh, thanks Hoppy and we’ll uh, see you in a little bit. All right, the state of Hoppy, ladies and gentlemen, joining us for first intermission. And look at this. back and already Minnesota on the power play. 1 minute 17 seconds and an opportunity versus giving one up on that one. Uh the best one is Common Bond Brewery. And what was your favorite beer there again? I forget. Shot off the face off wide. Baldi has it. Baldi back to Spurgeon. Zukarelloo shot. No one there to tip it. Home. Vegas sends this out. Spurgeon cross ice. Wild re-enter the zone. Wild to Capri off right side gets pinned up against the boards but Baldi has it behind the net or Eric I should say and nice job by Vegas getting it back. Baldi holds the line. Capriov at center. Capriov finds Zukarelloo. Zukarelloo cross ice to Baldi. Baldi at the circle. Back to Spurgeon. shot doesn’t get through traffic. Rebound. Ericson tried to poke it home and a whistle and a save by Aiden Hill. And we’re going to have a face off to the right of Aiden Hills. Eric Chenk in the middle of the action. Zelda Blonde. I miss the Stone Pat Scala Red IPA. Uh, I do just about anything more than that. Greets, when you go from Ireland back to the skates and try it again where your eyes twitch a bit and it’s like I like Guinness in the States, but yeah, I’d imagine just because like it cuz a isn’t it produced over here? Is it or isn’t there at least isn’t there at least one uh brewery out here? One big one. And if not, then like the travel time and everything, it’s just different. Knew they would keep the five forward power play after the shorty. 1825. Again, thanks to everybody joining us. Pretty good crowd here tonight. Smash that like button if you haven’t already. I got to get another poll question up. I didn’t ask Hoppy if Poppy’s still lurking. If you’re still watching, suggestions for a poll question. Uh, they make it here, too, but it’s the water that changes it so much. No, honestly, Jonathan, it’s such a huge factor. It’s such a huge factor. as I push up my hipster glasses. 1757 on the clock in the wild have it in the neutral zone power play over here as they in the first half of the power play were able to get some opportunities. Trying to get this over the blue line, but that’s going to be offside. What’s everyone sipping on right now? Look, Hoppy and I, we could talk beer with you guys all day, all night. What are you guys sipping on right now? almost done this one and you know it is a Tuesday so I’ll probably just switch over to freaking water after this but I mean unless it goes to overtime then we’ll then we’ll crack another ex playing really good. I would really like to see him produce offensively. Man, it’s just like I need some of those I mean obviously we all need this. He needs it. Just some of those shots that he’s poking at in front of the net to go in. God, I love Hams, dude. I love hams. Look, like I said, I get a bunch of gift I get a bunch of uh gifts from a lot of the breweries that we work with, but my go-to is hams. Just like in Canada, it was Lucky Logger. In [ __ ] the United or in Minnesota is [ __ ] hams, bud. Nowhere else can you get a freaking what is it like 18 pack or whatever it is? I don’t I forget. For like $7.99 on sale. Inject that into my veins, baby. Nice pass by I don’t even know who is it by, but it was to Felo. Fino shot that goes up and wide and here comes Vegas. Good defense by the Wild as they knock this one out of their zone. 30 pack for $16.99. That’s what it was. That’s what it was. Why did I say $7.99? Dude, I’ve even gotten it cheap. I’ve gotten a 30 pack cheaper. I’ve gotten a 30 pack for $11.99. I’ve gotten a 30 pack for $11.99. Ober. Cheers, guys. Yeah. Hell. Hell yeah, Blueot. It’s good to see you. Thank you for stopping by on the YouTube side of things. Would rather wild and leaves both events. Oh, that’s good. That’s good. I think once at Liquor Boy and honestly once in a at one of the Adina liquor stores. I forget which one though. Oh, big hit by Trenon. He’s been throwing the body around left, right, and center tonight. Okay, that’s a great poll question. And we’re going to do that. Oh, you already got it up. Thank you. Look at that. Look at that. 1556. Hazy Mango IP from Lip Bridge. Love me some Lift Bridge. I would actually really like that. Oh, dude. Everyone’s everyone’s sipping on that. Good [ __ ] Hams included. Cheers. I need to restock the hams behind the net. Wild trying to get this one out, but twoon one. Baldi is able to help push this puck up up center. Nice save by Gustin is Vegas with a chance. Vegas on the left side. Vegas shot. That goes wide. Here comes Baldi. Baldi through center, loses it. Lift bridge is a very good choice. Two minutes. Damn. So, you’re going to have to go to uh double overtime. Baldi needs a go. He’ll get one. He’ll get one. He’s been pretty much scoring in every game, but can’t get it. Oh, you’re a Bush guy, but can’t get in Hawaii. That’s right. You’re in Hawaii. Blue note, the biggest Blues fan out of Hawaii. And an opportunity there by the Wild. A good save by Hill. Wild get it back in the neutral zone. Pass to the right side. Not completed. Vegas gets it back. And a long pass up the right side. Battling on the wall. Vegas back with it. Sharp angle shot. That’s going to rebound. And here come the Wild. I’m still water boy so I drink a lot of lift bridge. Let’s go. Yeah, I’m in Plymouth now. So Plymouth area anyways now. So loose line is uh is the local watering hole 1408 wild right side circle pinching was Faber. Faber drops it back but Vegas gets it back. Catching beer at this age. Well, what are you sipping on that’s not alcoholic? Watch Jeremiah’s like, I’m not sipping beer. Just straight straight whiskey, boys. I’m bummed. They stop making seltz. There’s no bomb seltzers at the fair. And this puck goes up and out of play. We’re going to go to TV timeout. Guys, if you’re watching on X or Facebook, uh, come over to YouTube and join our live chat here. Subscribe to the channel. We’ll continue to cover the Minnesota Wild playoffs as well as the NHL playoffs here on the channel. Uh, obviously focusing on the Wild first and foremost, but if the Wild get knocked out of any round, not just this round, but of any round, you know, cuz because they’re making the second round, right guys? They’re making the second round. Uh we’ll uh we’ll stream some other games as well as uh as we’re aiming to stream the finals series, too. Drink Red Bull. Let’s go. I’m very much a coffee guy. I’m like coffee, water, beer. Although on on other alcohol, like I do like whiskey, but but yeah, coffee, water, beer. That’s that’s usually that’s usually my go-to. That’s the big three. That’s the big three. Anyone know about hockey sticks? I’m sure a lot of our live chat why up coke zero se shot 1712 for the Vegas Golden Knights. Take a look at the hits here. 19 hits for the Wild, 10 for Vegas. And honestly, like Trenins probably got the bulk of those. My god, dude. Look at that. Devils and Hurricanes are going to go into double overtime. And the Orers and Kings game still uh scoreless. Just looking at the replay of that last Gus and save, man. And that second shot went up and high. 1338. Hey, what’s up Jared? Uh, greetings from Colorado. Go wild hard being a Minnesota sports fan at you. Yo, shout out to Jared. Talk about em uh enemy territory. Talk about selling method in Tuco’s territory. Freaking Jared Moya, a wild fan in Colorado. Yo, shout out to you, man. Welcome to the chat. Welcome to the channel. Good to see you. Good to see you. Punch Adrian Dri for us. Going into second overtime for Reaper Jones’s uh New Jersey Devils. All right, guys. Jeremiah’s asking for hockey stick. Does he get a hyperllight two or Twitch? Well, I play I do not play any organized ice hockey at all. So, I’m the wrong person to ask, but I’m sure there’s people in the chat here. The Wild don’t score soon. I’m breaking out the 151 proof. He’s stuck with Kona out there. No way. All right, here we go. Here we go. Freddy Gudro taking the face off. Losing this one, but gets it back at center. Hyper light. You can assume the same for as me. No need for anything else. 1320. Good draw with it in the wild zone. Sending it up and gets it back to center. Felino big hit as he chases the puck into the Vegas zone. If the Devils lose, I’m getting the crown. 1303. Yo, shout out to Reaper Jones for drinking Crown Royal down south, baby. That’s a welltraveled bottle. Spurgeon keeps us in shot, but that’s deflected off a body and Gudro is going to have to fetch it. Long shift for Gudro and he skates to the bench here. The Wild send this one back into the Vegas zone. 1240. And again, a pretty I mean, other than the Wild having uh couple opportunities on the power play, pretty back and forth game thus far. That back and forth period in particular. Smash that like button if you haven’t already. Vote in the poll question. It’s a good one. It’s a good one. 1221 Wild again. Just can’t get this through traffic, man. And then here comes Vegas and they send this into the wild zone. Gossison behind the net. Sends it around fighting for it in the corner. Vegas at the blue line. Shot rebound. Another shot. And Gusen is going to hold on to this one. Why are we so scared to shoot? Aiden Hill’s watching a squirrel on the ice. Squirrel. Squirrel. I know at this point he’s playing hacky sack back there. D his as at this pace he’s just going to take a couple sips of the crown because he ain’t doing anything back there. Get only 12 shots in the Minnesota Wild and the only two the only two well I’d say two of the three opportunities this period uh came on the power player. He has been this series. If you pepper him with shots, there’s going to be one or two that go in. 1254 and puck goes up and out of play. Is this delay of game? Did this bounce off a stick or was this shot out of the play? Uhoh. Oh, and it’s delay of game on the wild. And Hartman goes to the box. Oh my god. Talk about [ __ ] I don’t know, man. So Hartman. Wow. That That’s a bad [ __ ] power play if or that’s a bad [ __ ] penalty if I’ve ever seen one. Like bad on like Hartman. What the [ __ ] are you doing? Bad. So Hartman settles the puck kind of doesn’t really settle it actually. bouncing puck in for Hartman and he just hits it out of he just hits it over the boards. Wow. Power play for the Vegas Golden Knights. I uh I am speechless, ladies and gentlemen. Shot. Good save by Gustoson. I mean, if I was in a pickup game with the boys, I’d do that. But in a playoff when an NHL playoff hockey game, [ __ ] bro. Hear me out. This one, if John Cooper gets fired from Tampa, we should pick him up, dude. Anyone. Anyone. I I would say Vancouver first because well I’m a Vancouver guy and Vancouver Kucks guy and talk was let go but like [ __ ] the lore from Prince George any team would benefit from having him 11:06 Garren wants his boy Sully I mean that was a guy who actually coached in Vancouver as well he was the assistant coach there and for 14 days or for 14 games was the head coach for the Vancouver Conucks. Why 14 games? Cuz John Tordella was suspended 14 games for literally going to the locker room to fight Bob Hartley. What a [ __ ] beauty. What a game, too. I will never forget that one. Tom Cidto in the post game. Can you comment on what happened there? Well, Torch said they were putting their idiots out there, so we were going to put ours out. And then calls my line. 1051. Oh, there’s a lot of Twitter accounts who’d have a lot to say about that. And also, [ __ ] the Blackhawks. So many years of pain for the Vancouver Conucks. Coaching against Quenville, too. 10:30 36 seconds left on the power play for Vegas. Vegas has it the blue line. Theodore to Eel. Eichel’s been having a good game. Eel finds Stone. Stone one too many passes there and that’s broken up. Eichel still has it. Tries to find Hurdle at center. Hurdle. Theodore to Eel. Shot at center and doesn’t get through. And I don’t know who that hit or if that hit the post, but that bounce to the left. 15 seconds. Ekeel. Theodore. 10 seconds. Can’t get it on net. What a kill. What a kill. Honestly, two great kills for the Wild so far. Gus centering. Nice stick by Gus followed by the left pad. They can’t get back. They cannot get past the Gus bus. Ladies and gentlemen, the Wild have not gotten a shot on net in god knows how long. I mean, it feels like five to six minutes. No way. And Felino’s taking the penalty now. Man, I missed game one and two when nothing was called. Another delay of game two. Jeez, boys. This isn’t This isn’t beer league. Oh, never mind. His was interference. I forgot it was I thought I thought he said delay of game there, but my volume is so low. That was just that that that was almost even worse than just playing hacky sack with the freaking with with the freaking puck. Anyways, uh back toback power play. Thanks, Fenino and Hartman. Wild to sign uh the cav space to sign the dirty leaf mner. Yeah, you don’t want mner. Yeah, they don’t want mner. Could use another score anyways. Get Brock Besser for way cheaper. They don’t want Mner. Look, man. Hines thinks Rossy doesn’t have any balls. He want He wants Marner who has literally no testicles. Not even one. Not even one. There we go. That’s what I’m saying. If N wants to trade uh Rossy for having one ball, there’s no way he’s going to bring in Mner who has zero. And like I I’m not saying I want Brock or Mner. I’m just saying if you’re going to have one of the two, like you know, bring in one who at least has some [ __ ] Uh they would need to trade Rossi for 10 mil plus. Dude, I [ __ ] love Sam Bennett. I’ve been a fan of Sam Bennett since he was uh playing in Kingston with the front knocks. Still a onegoal game, Jake. Still onego game. All right, TV timeout here. At least we went to a commercial break. The Wild got a little bit a little bit of a time to rest, but here we go. Backtoback kills here and down a goal in this game. Not good. and not good as the clock is not in their favor. Let’s hope it’s 3-1 going into the third. That’s the most dangerous position in hockey. That is true. That is true. So, there was a call. I mean, you you’re in Canada, so you probably heard uh was it the Jim Houston call when he was in the playoffs when he got called up? 18-year-old Sam Bennett. It’s like every time he’s on the ice now. I just think Jim Houston 926 and we’re going to face off again here. They’re going to redo it to the right of Gustoen halfway through this second period. Theodore with it as the Golden Knights win the face off. They send it back up and Gusen, bro, Gusen did not even know where that was. That was a wicked pass to the right side. Gustoson had no idea where that was, but the shot was right to his belly, so he made that save. Dude, I would way rather have Katzel than Bess to be honest. And I’m a Vancouver guy. Love Brock and I want him to continue to do well because I have both of his rookie cards and I and I want to sell them ASAP. I’m sending them to PSA. So hopefully they grade 10 and he continues to play well. But but yeah, Gensel is Gensel’s so sick. Down low save by Gustin as he covers this one off. We’re going to have another face off. Yeah, man. Vegas pushing here as they’ve been given two power plays and they’re looking good here. Getting opportunities, but nice defense by the Wild. Baldi helped with that one as Middleton swung at it after to get it out of the zone or to get it out of the crease I should say. I also found cloning Gus and just having six Gus bus out there. 838 Vegas wins the faceoff again. Hurdle with it. Back to the right side. Back to the blue line. And right side shot blocked. And here come the Wild. 56 seconds on the power play for Vegas. Wild short-handed. Freddy Gudro sends us on net rebound. And that goes wide. Uh on YouTube. On YouTube. If you go to the chat you and you click like the plus button, you can add polls. 801. Great chance there indeed. A little shorty attempt by the Wild. 29 seconds. Here comes Eichel. Blazing speed through the neutral zone. And this puck’s going to go all the way around the Wild net and down ice all the way to Aiden Hill who leaves it for Theodore. Wild have it. They drop back center slot shot doesn’t get through traffic. Barbesev back to the blue line and Vegas loses it. That’s backto back kills for the Wild. Felino out of the box. Almost caught up to the puck there. Yeah. Yeah. Kings and Oilers. No one uh scoring in that game yet. and go and soon few minutes the devils and hurricanes will be going into their uh second OT. I do Blueote fan report. You don’t do the polls through Streamyard. You do them on YouTube. So you got to open a YouTube tab. 653 be signed into your YouTube account and you got to and just have the stream up and you can just do it with the chat. You can also pin comments there too. Was that a blocker save or did that just hit a different that deflect off a player? Yeah, no problem, dude. No problem. Uh, the Wild make to throw make me want to smoke three packs of cigarettes. Bro, I am cigaretted out, bro. Protest [ __ ] lost over the weekend. We smoked a whole pack of American Spirits to try to get him to win. I am I am never smoking another [ __ ] cigarette again, dude. Do not recommend smoking a whole pack of cigarettes in 24 hours. The nicotine poison is real. 640. Shut. That doesn’t get through. And practice didn’t even [ __ ] win. 633 and Kar gets it back. Shot that goes wide. 619 the Wild with it. Nice job by Hartman. Hartman up the left side. Hartman sends it on or behind the net. I think he was trying to send it to Nep or on the net but anyway sends it behind the net. Middleton shot through traffic and actually finds a lane but blocked by Aiden Hill. We’re going to have a face off to the right of Aiden Hill. How’s it going Mr. Blackjack? Good to see you. Good to see you guys. Don’t forget to smash that like button if you haven’t already. There’s like 40 people watching. Appreciate you guys. If you’re watching on uh X/ Twitter and Facebook, get your ass over to YouTube so you can vote in our poll question. Let’s uh check out the results of the of the poll question right now. Let’s see. Let’s see. Almost 20 likes, guys. Let’s try to get to 40 or let’s try to get to 30 likes on the video. Let’s try to get to 30 likes on the stream here. Toughest existence. Leafs fans, Kucks fan, Wild fan. 67% say Wild fan right now. Good. Been a while. I saw you in the boys stream yesterday, so it’s good to see you there. Jud’s Buds 55 Vegas single-handedly trying to barge through the zone. They get through the zone. Nice pass. They hold the zone as well. opportunity back to the left blue line. Shot that doesn’t get through traffic. Rebound attempt though. Front of the neck. Gus making the save. I’m lucky if I get five likes. You just got to keep poking, dude. I I’ll sometimes do live streams on my second channel, the City Life Project, and I’ll have like 200 people in the chat and only like, you know, 10 to 15 likes until I tell them all to like it and they’re like, “Oh yeah, I forgot. Let’s go. Let’s go. Big game tomorrow indeed. All right, we’re going to a TV timeout here, guys. Wild. A little bit of a late push by them. Little bit of a late push. They’ve responded upon killing those uh freaking power plays backto back, man. Sheesh. All right, keep the comments coming, guys. Again, vote in the poll question if you haven’t already. You guys think the Wild are going to tie it up? They don’t got much more time. They don’t got much more time. Let me know what are your thoughts on the other games going on here. We still have the Hurricanes and the Devils playing going into second or first, no, second OT. And of course, uh, Edmonton and LA second period just started. Scoreless in that one. And then this one here, Vegas up by one. Up by one. Out shooting the Wild by 10. 23- 13. the faceoffs doing way better than the faceoffs as well. And it’s showing 21 to freaking 12. The milder playoff jokes lately. They have been. Lately they have been. No, she is over. Killing the power plays is the most uh wild thing ever. Uh maybe we get one of those 2023 third period surges. Who’s your team, Michael? As a Canucks fan, my uh my life is over, right? So, um not a good day. If it was a weekend, I would drown my sorrow in something harder than just uh a loose line beer. Who’s your team, Michael? 538. Erikson taking the face off. I don’t think the Wild have been mild in this uh series though. It’s been a really good series actually. Like I said, it’s gotten like national attention. We’re like people are writing about the series and admittedly being like, I did not think that this was going to be one to circle. Well, yet it’s been one of the more competitive ones, which is uh which is cool. Shoot, man. Even up in Canada, they’re talking about this series. And the [ __ ] Leafs are in the playoffs and Montreal. They don’t care about the Senators. But Faber shot from the blue line. That doesn’t get through. Looks like the puck might have bounced up and hit one of the Vegas players, but he’s still on the ice. Vegas sends it back into the wild zone and we’re going to get a whistle on the call. I think the puck bound. Did it bounce up? I’m not sure where it hit the defenseman. They were mild as they’re blowing game four. Uh Zeve and Middleton both bombs. Elliot Freeman says it’s the best series so far. Ben wants Vegas to win this all penalties verse Minnesota. That didn’t answer my question though. Uh who’s your team? Uh hit McNab right in the cocking. Oh, hit him in the balls. I read chat when they showed the other replay. 448. I don’t think Bman has anything to do with the the ref’s calls. I think the Wild made two stupid calls. Again, Michael, I don’t I don’t think you’re watching the game if you if you think that that was Bman uh who told the refs to call those. Those are just two stupid w stupid wild penalties. But you should turn on the game cuz it’s a it’s a pretty good one. 435. Yeah, because if Michael thinks Bman gave Vegas those power plays, he’s clearly not watching the game. But you should, like I said. Who’s your team? Michael 435 face off to the right of Gustoen and the rest War and Hartman. He wasn’t waved up cheeky there. Uh oh. Well, you’re missing out then. You’re missing out, man. Wild fans or I guess Northstars fans are so sensitive. Come on, Michael. 414. Be a man, Michael. Watch some hockey. Up the left side. Here comes the Wild. O. Well, we hope to see you again. and we hope to see you again. Middleton sends it back. Go wild. Yo, what’s up? E products. So sensitive. So sensitive. And digging at it in front. The Wild can’t get that poke. And a save by Aiden Hill. Look at the [ __ ] eating grin on the face of Aiden Hill. Go love them trolls. It’s like it’s like UFC fans, man. I stream a lot of mixed martial arts and I swear half of them hate the sport and they’re and they’re they’re just here to complain. I’m kid farmer training. Middle team looks so bad ever since he broke his hand. I disagree, but we disagree on almost everything. Hot takes. 338. Oh, and a rebound shot by Felino goes wide. Didn’t want to admit he’s a Leafs fan. O, probably. All right, I’ll give him a pass. He’s sad. He’s sad tonight. 330 322 and we’re have a whistle here. in the neutral zone. We’ll see where the faceoff comes at. [ __ ] longest six minutes. What is this? The end of a basketball game. My god. Lot of whistles here in the final six minutes, guys. Oh, and Carolina advances. Damn. Sorry, Reaper Jones. Kind of all expected that. Hey, props to the New Jersey Devils for making this one a game. How many sticks has marched and broken so far? He likes to throw some hissy fits. All right, face off in the neutral zone. All of them. A Reaper, they played a good game though, man. 308 got close got close to making the series interesting and Minnesota’s offside. Like I said, this this has been the longest six minutes and Marstrom has broken all of his sticks [Music] confirmed. All right, fourth line and third pairing out there. Face off to the right of Gusen. Marshmall never saw it. I [ __ ] love Aaho 302. Jake’s already given up on his team. Damn it all. I’m breaking the crown and playing brass bonanza. Yo, Reaper, thank you so much for hanging out with us in the chat here. You have a good night, my friend. You shouldn’t call her a hoe. Washington. I’m rooting for Washington more than the Wild right now. 235. And if the sends, actually, I’m more just rooting for the sends to beat the Maple Leafs after that. Whatever. Good night, buddy. But yeah, seeing Montreal get taken out by the Capitals. Beautiful. 217. See you later, Jeremiah. You’re going to miss the comeback. 211. But it is late, so I understand. Again, PTSD is real. Yet, I can still think with a level head. They’re not in the playoffs. Go. Yo, what’s up, James? Yo, [ __ ] the Leafs. [ __ ] the Leafs. I do like John Gibson. I do like John Gibson. 148. Back to the line. Shot deflected. Diving in front of that one was Minnesota. And this puck comes to the back to the neutral zones. Oh, Chris Pratt needs to be added to the soundboard for comeback. Oh, I I need to add a lot to the soundboard. Another diving play by Minnesota. No tripping call. And there wasn’t one that was uh needed, but there is going to be a whistle here as in the corner there. Looks like Sod may have gotten a high stick. Let’s take a look at the replay. Yes, guys, go check out Blue Note. Uh he’s covering uh the blues. Okay, so Sod takes a penalty. High stick as he got tangled up in the corner and the wild back to the power play. Unsuccessful so far for two. It’s funny because if this was game one or two, that wouldn’t have been called. Feeling good about this one. If this was game one and two, that wouldn’t have been called. I’d rather I I missed the way people were complaining. I want to say this for all the Wild fans who are complaining in game one or two, oh, so many missed calls, this and this and that. Let’s be honest, you would rather have that. You’d rather have those refs than in game three and four and this one. Be honest. You’d rather them call nothing than call too much. 121. Now, if the Wild had freaking a young Daniel Henrik Sadine on the ice, that would be a completely different uh story. But 1 minute and 12 seconds remain in the period. 1 minute and 50 seconds remaining on the power play. Wild will start the third period up a man. And Vegas makes quick work, forcing the Wild back into their own zone. Final minute. Final minute of period two. Yo, what’s up, Eric VGO? Good to see you, sir. What are you sipping on tonight? And again, Vegas forces this back into the Wild Zone in a game with so many power plays. Wouldn’t it be nice if all the D could be Zeve? Buham, what’s a power play? What’s a rub off mean? That’s one for the soundboard, too. What’s up, Sodto? Well, good to see you, buddy. Final seconds of the second period, ladies and gentlemen. Capriovv up the left side to Zukarelloo. 10 seconds. Left side. Capriovv and that pass back to Zukarelloo is deflected. And that’s going to do it for the second period as Vegas sends us back down the length of the ice. and Wild able to kill off two big uh well basically yeah they had two good penalty kills. They killed off two big power plays uh for the Vegas Golden Knights in that second period. They have a little bit of time left. I think it’s around 48 50 seconds left on their power play to start the third period. So that will be good starting the third period with a little momentum up a man. They they were able to keep this a onegoal game but unfortunately could not capitalize at the end there. Sodo, it’s good to see you as always. How are you doing, buddy? How are you doing? Continue continue to comment, guys. Bring up Jack. It’s uh Wild fans are on the edge of their seat. Wild fans are biting their nails right now, Andrew. Wild fans are sweating as they’re down a goal. against the Vegas Golden Knights. But overall been a pretty good game. Overall been a pretty good game. I’d have to say that the Wild had a better period. I’d say I mean overall had a better period, guys. Uh poll question. Do you get excited when the Wild get a power play? Yes, but I shouldn’t. No, but I should. I don’t feel anymore. What’s a power play? Absolutely love it. Absolutely love it. Well, not really, Anthony. How How did it kill them? I I would say that I I wholeheartedly disagree with you because the Wild scored right after. So, I don’t know how this comment makes any sense. Now, if the Wild didn’t score after, then okay, I agree. maybe the the beginning of the the beginning of the down the downhill trajectory, but the fact that they were able to tie it up right after basically made it moot. All right, we’re going to take a quick break, but keep the comments coming. This was like Anony’s first comment and like a [ __ ] all over. I’m sorry, Anthony. I’m sorry. Keep comment Keep the comments coming. Back on the other side, ladies and gentlemen. Quick break. We’ll bring the state of Hoppy back to take your guys’ comments. Talk beer, talk hockey, the whole nine yards here. Uh, talk about uh [ __ ] What do you guys think of the Carolina Hurricanes advancing? Pretty predictable. I I know, but still. But still, uh, back on the other side. Don’t go anywhere. More coverage here uh, throughout the intermission and of course a big third period next here on the [Music] Sodapod. Heat. Heat. N. [Music] [Music] Oh, hey. [Music] Oh my people like you’re making a heft now like last year. Like yeah. Yeah. That one’s called the 11th hour. It’s kind of just a cheeky um play on that we kind of release it later than most people towards the end of the summer. I wanted to kind of be in there in that cusp between summer and fall. And now with summer’s lasting longer and longer these days and we’re in September and it’s 80s, it’s still a viable option. Oh, nice. Central division team that I love to love, the Nashville Predators, of course. [Music] What up? What up? Isa actually just messaged me and said he actually is going to pee his pants because he was so excited the dev jumped in unannounced. So, uh I don’t know when he’s gonna be back. That’s a lot for him to take care of. Yeah, you’ve already heard from me. What do you think about what’s happening in this game because I don’t know. I feel like everyone is either like way overreacting or not reacting enough based on what I’m seeing online. Um, well, I I think I’m probably closer to underreacting than overreacting. I probably am, too. I don’t know. It’s weird. They This team, this series, this this game is weird. Like Eel was baldled out in the first period. He was lights out. Absolutely phenomenal. Um then the entire second period was basically one giant nothing burger for everybody. Um, you know, I I was texting my buddy and you know, the conclusion I came up with is like the Wild I I’d be curious to see what the expected goals are between the two teams because the Wild are definitely not getting as many opportunities, but the opportunities that they are getting seem to be much better opportunities. Um, I don’t know. It’s weird. I I feel like I feel like we’re due for the fourth line to get another greaser in here somewhere. I mean, they haven’t gotten one this game, so yeah, they’re due. That’s exactly what I’m saying. And I mean, the Eel and Stone line has like 15 or 16 minutes of ice time in part in no small part because they’ve been on the power play what, three or four times. So, it helps. Yeah, that definitely helps. Especially because the way that it’s timed out, they’ve been able to get a breather in between each power play, like you know, between when it started and everything. Uh, I don’t know, man. It’s uh I still actually weirdly have confidence that uh the the Wild will at the very least keep this interesting until the final five minutes or so. Um, yeah. I don’t know. It’s weird. We’re going to I mean, we’re going to open the third period with like what, like 40 seconds on the power play, which Okay. Evolving Hockey says Vegas has 2.4 and Wild have two expected goals, which is Yeah, that’s probably about Did you just give our 02 to them? Not all of us in the glass half empty guys. Okay. All right. Dev Dev’s more in my camp. Yeah, my glass is 25% full. I got I got my mug and it’s threequarters full here because I just I just refueled right before hopping on. Uh they moved Rossy up before the power play. That ended the period. They did that in game three. Where was he in game four? hobby for the I didn’t watch game four. That’s why I’m asking. Oh, you mean on the power play? Just Rossy in general cuz they I mean Hines in game three moved him up a little bit um at times. No, no, he’s saying before the power play, Rossy bumped up the lineup, but then the power play happened disrupted it. Yeah. Yeah. Um what AB was recommended for a game? Not beer. not beer. Um, I’m actually uh curious. I don’t know if you’ve had this before, VGO, because I know you’re uh my whiskey brother. Uh, rocking Janever right now, which uh water bottle. Very very European thing. Does look like a water bottle. I mean, it’s like clay, but or like lotion. I feel like hipsters these days would be like clays are the best water bottles because the minerals in the clay, it’s good for the water, your health. probably uh like would disgust someone that’s like really into genevers, but basically the best way I can describe it is like taking the uh botanical nature of a gin and mixing it with whiskey. It’s like the whiskey flavor with the gin botanicals. It’s actually like Deva had very different reactions. I was like just like no. VGO, you don’t have to buy it. You can just try some of mine. Yeah. I don’t I don’t I don’t like my whiskey piny. But see, I don’t think piney is the right I don’t know. Fair. I won’t smokey though. I’m like trying to get into scotch, but I feel like I’m forcing it a little too much. Well, if you’re trying to get into scotch, you should only spides. Yeah, scotch and whiskey are very different animals. Scotch Well, no, that’s not true. Whiskey covers the whole spread. Okay. very different than bourbon, which I agree and bourbon’s elite among all other forms of whiskey. But yeah, no, Scotch, if you’re trying to get into scotch, either start with Japanese, which I know you’ve already done, Isa, but for the others that don’t know, like Japanese whiskey is like kind of the baby step into scotch. And if you’re going to then continue to venture in space, don’t do [ __ ] love yourself, man. Dude, Japanese is like it’s it’s it’s top tier. I mean, everything in Japan. What did Marty McFly say, Doc? Every the best stuff is made in Japan. And it’s true. If the wild lose, like Malort’s not out of the question. Hey, there we go, Anthony. Yep. Japanese whiskey, which maybe that’s what I should have done. I got some Na coffee grain over there for the money. Best Japanese whiskey you’re going to have. This stuff is really good. If you have unlimited funds, there’s definitely better. But, bro, I don’t have a chain big enough to be Kurt Cousins. Black Rum is the way to go. I like Scotch. Scotchy. There we go. You can always count on for that one. Some call somebody to take you off track, but seeing that much special teams play pushes us there. The intermissions are are to be uh pushed off track. So, you guys you guys run the show here. Hang on though. Question for you guys and anyone in the chat. This is not my personal take. It doesn’t have a cool Hold on. I’m gonna find one. I’m gonna find one. This Hoppy talks. I’m terrified with what you might come up with. Um, not a take that I will like personally take credit for, but it’s one that I heard I think a couple years ago. Might honestly, Dev, it might have been my boy and your boy. It might have been American Washinsky that talked about this [ __ ] no idea where you’re going with this. So hot take power plays at the end of a period. You should either play out through the end of the period or be willing to defer to the next period if you so choose. Like there’s got to be an option because like the power play is so diminished when you split it in half. That that’s a Meric take uh from yeah like three or four years ago and probably longer knowing him which like I I’m all for. I think that it’s the biggest croc of [ __ ] when you like get to the end of a game and that happens or like dude think about it. You take a critical like like in the crease penalty with 7 seconds left and it’s like oh great penalty or even penalty shot like no play out a full two minute power play. The the worst is when it’s like a minute and seven seconds. No, no, I’m saying seven seconds left in the game. Oh, like you should be able to play past the buzzer for that. You should be able to play out the power play. Agreed. Okay, I follow now. But but my original point was, hey, there’s, you know, a minute and seven left. You should be able to either play past that and then take it off the third period or you should be able to say, hey, we’re just going to keep playing out this period. We want to start next period on the power play or something. I don’t know. It just sucks. I I really like the I really like the I’ve never heard I I think you may maybe have the twist on it because I I don’t think I’ve ever heard it of play the like extend the period basically. I like that a lot. I like that as an option. I’m okay either way as long as you get the full power play. Yeah. What’s up, Swerve? Good to see you. Yo, Elliot, it’s already out. It dropped actually yesterday. So, by the way, for those who uh who are Fellowship of the Ring or Fellowship, Fellowship of the Ring followers, um I listen to it more than I say it. Uh it like the schedule for it is it might even be earlier in the week. Um especially if the Wild, you know, continue on in the playoffs, continue to win and and go to the second round. Um if if we can get them out earlier in the week, we will. So, just make sure you subscribe to Sodap Pod or Fellowship of the Rink um and of course the YouTube channel and we’ll get it up uh sometimes even, you know, Monday or Tuesdays if we can. Then we’ll get back to the regular uh you know, Wednesday drop um moving forward. But because of the playoff schedule, if Hoppy and Joe can uh can get an episode out for you guys uh sooner than uh then we will. Yeah. Down to where the travels at. I don’t know what time he flies in, flies out, whatever. So big ticket noted because like I’ve just like I’ve tried just the PD stuff because that’s what everyone’s like oh you got to try like you know love a ghoul in this and you know I’m just like you’re not going to be able to afford a 21 here. I’m sorry bud. Well no but I can try to befriend somebody who can. Okay. Get a couple super chats and call it a day. There you go. Just a couple extra just a couple extra city live streams. couple of Japanese all night MMA streams and we’re good. Like that just sounds illegal. Like obviously it’s not, but just like Yeah. Just like imagine going back even 10 years ago and trying to explain, oh, what do you do for money? Yeah, I host uh watch streams for Japanese MMA. Yeah. Yeah. It’s like, okay, cool. Just say you money launder money for the [ __ ] mafia. Bro, 10 years ago, the Yakuza would straight up be laundering money through me to keep their organization going. Uh, he’s just like kicking himself. He’s like, “I got in a couple years too late.” Yeah, I I would I would 100% launder money for the Yakuza if it meant watching fights for free and not have to pay for You could You could never make it as Marty Bird. It would so poorly. Like, I picture you being more like the guy that’s trying to kill Marty Bird and it all goes haywire. No, Isa is the the partner in the first episode that gets [ __ ] merked. Oh jeez. Probably to be honest. Elliot app. Yo, shout out to Elliot, man. Um I don’t hate North Dakota as much as these guys. So shout out to you. It’s a respect hate though. Like I hate them. But like also I don’t know if if a North Dakota fan told me they didn’t hate the Gophers, I’d almost be like [ __ ] I Yeah. I mean I have the benefit of not being a Gopher fan. I’m just so indifferent towards North. I’m like turned into a gopher van because of like Are you Do you hate college hockey or do you not have a team or who is your team? Um that’s way too long of an answer. You don’t like college hockey? I like college hockey but I don’t really have a team. I like the idea of college hockey more than I actually like it. Well, that’s the So that’s the thing is like I know Cosgrove will get that one. Uh, I I do like college hockey. I enjoy it, but I prefer the NHL. Oh, dude, college hockey is so much better. I just Stanley Cup playoffs are better than everything, but regular season college versus regular season NHL, it’s not even close. I I just I remember like I would just watch college hockey whenever Kucks prospects were like on the team. So, I watch You mean like when Besser was there? No. No. No. Okay. Ster and Besser. And I I really liked Stcher. So they were both in North Dakota. And then I also watched um Godette when he was um God, what was the team again? But he wasn’t a prospect, was he? Yeah. For the Canucks. Well, he was like a fourth round after a free agent. No, no, he was the Conucks drafted him. The Conucks drafted God. I did find that [ __ ] Yeah. All right. He’s like fourth or fifth round, I want to say. Hobe Baker. Fifth round. Yeah. Yeah. So I I subscribed to Northeastern’s like website like $20 a month so I could watch all his games. I knew it was a Bean Pot team. I couldn’t remember which one, dude. And I watched the Bean Like Dude, Bean Pot is one of my favorite. The Bean Pot rules. The Bean Pot is what? What the [ __ ] did you just say? Flower Net. Wait, what? What? Shut up. Yeah. No, Russo said it. Unless Russo got hacked. But go what? Hopefully he just like is pulling the lango. Just has to quickly uh poop and then we’ll come back because he’s been playing damn good tonight. This Oh my god. Um this Okay, bring up the tweet, Hoppy. Bring up the tweet. What do you mean bring it up? Like share it if you find it. Like you want me to just like DM it to you? Just sure. All right. It’s easier for me to send it to you and Z. There it is. The broadcast hasn’t said anything yet. [ __ ] Oh, buddy. Um, first off, disappointed in Phil Gustoson. Um, this was his chance for the Jordan Flu game. Listen, man. I know it won’t count, dude. This is [ __ ] I know it won’t count as a win for him if if we do pull this [ __ ] off, but not correct. It will absolutely count as a win for him. Won’t it? No, I don’t think so. I don’t think it would count as flurry. No. Oh, sorry. I thought you were going to say it won’t count for flurry, but this will still Oh, no. This would This No, unless I’m misunderstanding. This is This absolutely would be Flurry. This would absolutely be Flurries. Correct. It’s Flurry’s win. Gus’s loss. Yes. But, uh, yeah, there he is. It’s all upside. What the [ __ ] Stop the cap. Nope. Just a huddle in the crease. No, I’m Listen, I’m looking at it with my own two eyes. That’s Mark Andre Flurry. Ego, you son of a [ __ ] Hot takes on talk, not staying in Vancouver. Dude, the aqua [ __ ] loonies men should just stick to their blueberry farms. VGO did this. I already told my son today, the only way Flurry plays of guts get sick is my fault. All right. Yeah. Love you, VGO, but you got to take this one on the chin. You curse them. Hey, hey, hey. If the Wild come back and win, we have to praise him. So, like, let’s pump the brakes. I mean, it would be I need Flurry to do at least one windmill, and he probably needs to do push-ups at some point. Can you guys I don’t know if you guys can hear the Are you guys are still on the Le Panther crew? Yeah, I’m on the fan. Yeah, I am. Uh the ESPN crew is like just now noticing that it’s flurry in there. Honestly, I’m proud of them that they realized this fast. You mean when I’m not even kidding. And Jordan ate a poisoned pizza. I’m I’m not even kidding. We’re a minute and a half into the period and he goes, “Oh, and there’s Mark Andre Flurry in that.” All right. Yeah. 1850. Mark Andre Flurryette. Big ticket. Uh, need second and third line to step up now. Have my doubts. What did Eric feed that voodoo doll? Wow. Can’t believe it. Here comes a 10goal period for Vegas. Will be a or praise. That’s P. Praise will be a pour out of that fancy bottle. Hoppy. There you go. I can give you better than that. VGO. This one’s not as fancy as you think it is. Looks fancy. Wow. I’m just reading the the comments of the I love Isa’s dyslexia though that turned praise into wild dyslexia. All right, boys. Well, if you want to stay on for this one, you guys are welcome to stay on. Um if not, then we’ll get back to the the commentary. If you want to join post game, let me know. Oh my Jesus [ __ ] Dev’s commentary. definitely needs a stash. But look, here I come. How the [ __ ] did we not get God? All right, I’m I’m getting the nika coffee green. Let’s go. Let’s go. Flower breaks the record for most years playing a game in the playoffs and the Wild with some chances there. They still have it. Yeah, I guess that’s probably true. Flower I don’t think Flowers ever missed the playoffs. Maybe his rookie year. Well, I mean, you know, Dev, he is famous for having won three Stanley Cups. So, don’t be a dick in the [ __ ] Yeah. I love Mark Andre Flurry. There were just times where he gave me no choice but to be better. Yeah. Yeah. See, as an outsider for, you know, the first 17 years of his career. See, that’s like you’re in the most blissful state. Oh, what a [ __ ] save by Aiden Hill. How a [ __ ] goal. Oh, baby. I’m like a couple seconds behind you guys right now, so I haven’t even seen it yet. [Music] But let’s go. Let’s go. Oh my god. Baldi, what a drive to the crease. Oh my god. Baldi said, “Gus, hold my beer, bro. I got this. I got this.” Baldi literally Gus said, “Gus, hold my beer, bro.” Cuz Flurry just scored that goal. I don’t care what anyone else says, dude. I’m sorry. What a [ __ ] shot. Was it right under the glove? No, that was right over toper, baby. What a beautiful goal by Baldi. Holy [ __ ] Poetic given that uh Vegas has been doing a good job when they scored in just winning the one-on-one battles and Baldi just no chance. No chance. Is amazing. Flower power. Guo now fourth uh fourth line center. I had zero intentions of staying and now that that happened while we were here, I obligated to stay until something goes poorly. All right. All right. As soon as something goes bad, I’m Yeah, without even saying you guys are bringing some good juju, some good vibes. Leah’s, just so you guys can keep up, Leah is just now being like, “Guys, I’m hearing that Gus Gustoson is sick. I can’t really hear what she’s saying. God, I can’t stand her. I feel so bad. Like, I have no reason to feel so strongly as I do about her, but god, she’s just the worst. Put Gus back on the ice. I want to see yak. It’s the It’s the bangs. We’ll get another delay of game hot takes. No more delay of games. Yeah. Delay of game for yaking on the ice. For the the people that either want to try Japanese whiskey or just need that baby step into scotch. It’s so good. This is the pick. This is depends on where you find it. I’ve seen it anywhere from 60 to 80 bucks for a bottle, which is definitely not cheap, but like Japanese whisies are like easily one or 200 bucks. So this one for the money absolutely my pick. Yeah. Any Japanese whiskey will do. She sucks. I mean it’s pretty like she she doesn’t do a good job. Makes me feel less bad about hating her when she’s an epo baby, you know? Yeah. Like if she was there on her own accord and I just objectively didn’t like her, I probably wouldn’t speak out as much. Yeah. But it’s less object. I mean it’s Yes. says objective, but it’s like object it’s an objective collective. So, it’s like all right. I just like I don’t know. It’s weird to me cuz like he’s saying objective collective almost broke his brain. Yeah, that was that was a good uh tongue twisty. Proud of you, babe. Oh, it’s his second point. Second point. It’s weird cuz like I don’t know, man. God damn my god, that goal is beautiful. Um I don’t know. Leah has Oh, we got a whistle. Funny cuz Dev, I thought you were maybe ahead of me because I heard you like sad so I assumed that the Baldy shot was saved. I’m like, “No, it doesn’t.” Oh, yeah. We’re probably all three of us so out of sync. I’m definitely like I think I’m 20 seconds. I think Dev and I are on the same page. He was like going, “Oh, to something different.” Yeah. I just I just made a false assumption at the beginning. I I lost the puck for a second and then Oh, man. Still one Edmonton LA. One minute left in the second. Bro, last game I was fi I was able to find uh a totally legal way to watch it uh in sync, but I’m 20 seconds behind right now. So, here’s a question for Dude, see the Yama 12 is obvious wraparound attempt by Baldi there again. Wait, what what have you seen it listed? Isha, you’re more than you’re more than 20 seconds behind us. Okay, let me refresh then. I thought I thought Isha was like 15 seconds behind. If he’s just now seeing a wraparound attempt, he’s about 40 seconds behind me. What’s the clock? I was gonna say I’m 1430 on the clock. Yeah, dude. You’re like six seconds behind. Maybe your reaction time is just slow. Um cuz I just I’m just I’m just hitting 14. I understand it. VGO, I want to know what your se like what’s retail for GMA 12. Oh, big ticket. Great pick. or sorry, Jonathan was there first. But yes, red breast if you’re going with Irish whiskey is the winner. That is that is my na coffee grain. Like it’s it’s not cheap, but as far as spending a lot of money on an Irish whiskey, like it’s not that bad. Cator is move. Well, it’s just because it’s the cheapest one in Canada. That’s why I bought all the time. But no, I I do like Centtory. Um, it’s it’s good. It’s good. I haven’t had like the the upper tiers. Um, but yeah, it’s always a good It’s always a good go-to. And I love their uh I’m a I’m a big fan of their YouTube channel, too. And they do all their the like the ice cutting, and they they do good promotions. All right, TV timeout here, guys. What a goal by freaking Baldi to tie it up there and had another opportunity right after with that wraparound. I mean, it just seems like finally the Wild have some momentum here and like for the first time they’re not trailing a lot in shots either. 25 to 20. Well, dude, and like Dev, I don’t think I said this on here. I think I’ve said this on podcasts, but like you are way more optimistic. I believe like in the past like have you ever been confident in the Minnesota Wild going into the postseason? Literally ever thought that we would lose the series? No. Have you ever been confident going into a playoff round thinking the Wild would win it before it started? It’s been a while. Question. I feel like the answer is definitely yes. Ever. Yes. Absolutely. It’s been a while. I’ve never never This is the first one where I believe it. I would say that series I want to say 17 against Winnipeg and then obviously that one went tits up immediately and I think that was the one where Hollow broke his leg in the first game and uh but like going into that series I felt pretty good. Um nice. See, the lowest I’ve seen Yamazaki is like maybe 100, but it’s usually more in the like 120 to 150 range. Yeah, I’ve seen it like Yeah. Same like 100 110. The one time I saw it below 100, I bought the bottle and I still have it in the box and haven’t opened it just because that’ll probably be a trade for me. Or soon enough, I’ll open it too. VGO, if you and I start a uh Whiskey and Gophers podcast on the side, you know, it’s clear with Jup. all busted open for the first episode. There you go. There you go. Uh back at it, by the way, guys. And Wild exiting their zone. Uh yes, against the Blues, they were injured with a top three defense out and we still lost. I’m not saying I’ve never thought there was like a chance. It’s more I’ve never had any level of confidence. They’ve never had a team like even the year where they came in I can’t remember which year it was was it like was it 15 or 16 where everyone was so high on the Wild I’m like this is fraudulent this is bad and it was we might be talking about the same year the one year I think it was the year against Winnipeg where we came in and we I think we won the division and we had like it was you know you know what it was it was Bruce’s first full year so whatever year that was um I love Bruce. We won the division. Yeah, that was 1617. Yeah. Okay. So, we won the division. We were pretty healthy. We had like 103 points or something like that. And in the first two games, we got just like beat to beat to death basically. And then I think it was 1617. No, I can’t remember. It it was I think it was the year before in 1516 where we were up against the Blues and like Perez was on one leg and uh we were the better team, but then Jake Allen was getting like 62 saves a game. Yep. And that was uh Yo’s last uh What a block. Last run. Yeah. Was that 1516 or was that 1415? No, 1415 was Colorado. Yeah. All right. 12 or 1210 on the clock. Good job, man. The the boys are buzzing and I know they were able to get get back into the Vegas zone there and it was a nice rush. Nice opportunity. They’re holding it well in the zone right now. They’re they’re playing for flurry, which is great to see. Well, I mean, they needed some. I mean, after uh starting the the third period, obviously on the the power play, like they had their they had their chances and it it didn’t look like they were collapsing by any means. It kind of looked like most of the first period, most of the second period. Um but I think like just an extra fire was lit here that they like they they have to kick it into gear right now, right? because they’ve kind of let Gus bail them out in in certain times, not only this game, but throughout the whole series. Flurry hasn’t registered a save yet. We’re halfway through the third. That’s, you know, I am perfectly fine with that. I am too, don’t get me wrong. Hot take flurry going in is an absolute difference maker because you took a very hostile crowd and basically made them like completely neutralized. That is true. That’s like they love Flurry. Yeah, Flurry’s their their man. On their very short list of like players that fans defend and are pissed that ownership treated so shittily. That’s uh shitty. Who what’s the rest of the list like Marshel? Pretty much it. I don’t think they were thrilled the way that Riley Smith was sent out either, but they got over it pretty quick. Yeah, that is that is a great point indeed. I still hate these jerseys, by the way. Disgusting. I don’t know why they don’t use the black jerseys. The black jersey mustard jerseys. The mustard jerseys are Henderson’s jerseys are so much better. Henderson’s jerseys are sick. Yeah, Schmidt was their glue guy and they dumped him for a third and second year of his clone. That is true. They love Schmidt as well. So, but but it was immediately in response to bringing another guy, so no one gave a [ __ ] Yeah, agreed though. Like, honestly, Schmidt is a fan favorite wherever he goes. Like even like with the Canucks, he didn’t like that wasn’t his his best uh his best time in was with the Canucks, but like the fans loved him. Big ticket. I am not generally a Ry fan, but I’ve heard very good things about the M10. Granted, I want the M10 bourbon, but I’m sure that the M10 Rye is quite something, dude. Um, just again, another good opportunity by Vegas coming in and Wild’s defense is just locked in getting in between passing lanes. Um, quick quick decisions are being made in the neutral zone to get that puck up into Vegas’s zone. I would like them I would like to see them set up a little bit more. They’ve had some chances capitalizing on some of the rebounds as well. first to the puck here, but we need to get like a cycle going. We need to get Yeah. some sort of pressure going other than just like a shot where Vegas then sends it back out. Wild bring it back in here. And I think that’s where the opportunities will come. So far, defensively, they’re crushing. The question from Hot Takes just takes me back to one of the saddest series for me in recent memory where the Pittsburgh Penguins should have absolutely beaten the Rangers in their series between the cheap shots that led to injuries and losing your first two goalies and having something called Louis Deming come in for the majority of the series and the game that he came in and stole late. Yet spicy spicy was a tie. Spicy. No, spicy. Uh, pork and broccoli, I think. Yeah, you’re right. I think it was Was it pork and broccoli or beef and broccoli? I thought it was pork. I mean, you have a better chance. Spicy pork. It was spicy pork. You’re right. There we go. Go. Yeah. Minnesota having a good period right now. They tied it up. Playing very good defensively. They just need to, like I said, and I I think they need just to get some time in the offensive zone, move the puck, get that cycle going. And I mean, it’s a generic thing to say, but continue to actually get some more shots on net because they just haven’t had the opportunity to do that throughout the game. Dev has been telling us whenever he has send a text, it kicks him out. It kicks him out. I mean, if he just joined on a computer, there’d be no issue. H imagine a goalie putting on depends before the third. You know, Bobby Lou probably could have used depends. I literally have that uh clip ready to go here. One sec. Bobby Lou depends. That’s concerning. No, no, we’ll just um a clip for missing curfew. Has led the Vancouver Conucks out and will be playing goal to start overtime. Roberto Lango is not in the bench. She’s nowhere to be seen. In 2007, Roberto Lewango took an extended bathroom break during a playoff game and winds up missing the start of overtime. He’d eventually get back in the game. What was up with that bathroom break during the playoffs? Bad shrimp or uh I can’t divulge my secret, but uh let’s just say I had a little bit of a stomach problem. Bexa telling that story. I think now on like the Sportsnet panel and when him and Kesler had a podcast for like 10 episodes which is what ultimately got him the sportsnet job which was funny. Um he told us there there’s literally him and Ryan Kesler had a podcast with the most [ __ ] audio quality you will ever hear cuz I think they just were talking into like just their webcam or laptop and it was just 10 episodes but it was awesome. Like quality wise it hurts your ears a little bit so like maybe played on speakers versus headphones but it was great. you could probably still find it out there. And I swear like Sportsnet was like, “Kevin, we need to see what you got, do a podcast, we’ll fund it,” quote unquote, because there was nothing to fund there. And I And then literally like after they stopped doing their episode the next week, we actually got a job at Sports Net. So like I think it was more like they were like, “All right, let’s just see if you can do this and like bring on someone you can talk to.” And like Kesler was just great. Like they were they were great talking back and forth. But anyways, but two of them together. Two two Lighthouse 22. And we’re back from uh TV timeout. Eight minutes and 35 seconds left on the in the third period. Tie game here. Good to see you by the way, Lighthouse. Hopping just so we’re clear the at this point. Uh oh, vintage flower. Oh, beautiful. Beautiful. That was just absolute like textbook flower right there. Big Tickets asking if we could see Ogre next game. Doubt it. I mean, Johansson had a good opportunity in the first period, but that was about it. Yeah, I I don’t have much hope that Oren gets in. Not because I don’t think that he’d be an interesting guy to throw in. I just don’t think Hines has any interest. Flurry. Holy crap. Oh my Flurry. Comments are coming in reacting to that one as well. I mean, that’s good. Flurry coming in cold. Warming up there in textbook flurry fashion. Honestly, I I blame Bo for this. He was talking about how it’s such a shame that we won’t get to see Flower’s sweet ass pads in a game. Psych. Yeah, they’re there. We’re seeing them now. We’re seeing them now. What time do you got right now, Dev? I just refreshed. Uh 7. Okay. Okay. 7:02. You’re ahead of me then. And there’s something Nyquist did. He He deflected in. Yes, Dave. Well, not injured. Uh stomach problems. Watch. He’s sick. The poops. Yeah, he’s sick. He’s sick. Tree flower like an elite closing pitcher. I haven’t been paying much attention. I really I get really worried sometimes. zone in zone in out of the game. Yeah. So, Fl or Flurry’s in to start the third period. Has made a couple good saves here, but for the most part, Wild have kept Vegas uh outside of the zone or broken up their plays. Here, here’s the real question, guys. Floy’s got a good stick, though, this game. We get to overtime hypothetically. Shut the [ __ ] up. Gustoson is healthy. What happens? I mean, they still go back to your ride flower. We’re just totally on opposite ends. Go back to No, Deb, I didn’t I didn’t ask what your fantasy is. I asked what do we do in the game? Oh, a little bruhaha behind the game, dude. Ein stone of just all series. I I legitimately fight on this. It like he shoots it into Middleton and then it it just like doesn’t come back. I don’t know where it did Did Mid’s body just absorb it? And by his body, I mean his teeth and or mustache. Okay, we’re looking at the replay right here. Um, it went under Capriov, I think, and Flurry just dug for it. No, I’m talking about after that it gets kicked out and then sent all the way down and when it comes back, uh, Eel rips it. I don’t know. I I think you ride I think you ride with flower though for real. Um if if this goes to overtime at 22, what if it goes at 33? [Music] Depends. If it’s 33 and Vegas scored last, then I think you go Gus. Man, if Faber didn’t get in that play there, that would have gone in. Flurry like credit to him. He he he pushed right and like extended the stick, but like he would not have saved that to have underneath the screen like in the Streamyard studio. Mhm. It’s so zoomed in on your face and you look so intense and it like really is throwing me for a loop whenever I see it. Yeah, I’m I had to stop looking because it just is it’s much bigger on my screen. It’s very disorienting. Vegas starting to gain a little bit of momentum now, but again, Wild just at their blue line doing a good job to break up their play. This is weird. The ESPN like score bug has taken two shots off from both teams. They just can’t get They just can’t get it together tonight. I can’t believe two minutes in they noticed that Gus was gone. Like nobody in the production crew told them. H I’m guessing that there’s a couple that still don’t know that Flurry’s. Yeah. Um Dave, no. You you said it, man. Um they’ve started to come back in this game, but like the first two periods it was it was pretty it was pretty bad um faceoffs wise. And it seems like most of the games the while they’re trailing and then come back late. X been the one who’s just been carrying as far as the faceoffs go. The first game the I know we lost but we we were like 60% as a team. First game was honestly one of the was one of the better showings from the Wild this whole series despite the loss. Like I think that was one of their most complete games. But again, there was no calls in that game, which was great for for both of them. But still, like the first two games, refs not blowing the whistles was awesome. I’d rather the refs not blow the whistles and not call anything than call everything personally in the playoffs. No, I’m with you. And it’s not like these guys went out of hand. And it’s not like they have the players like goons on each side to make the game go out of hand, right? Like I know Hartman’s wires crossed, but like let’s be honest, he’s not that he’s not that menacing. What is the TV crew doing showing Capri sitting next to Rossi? I just I don’t understand. Rossi doesn’t even deserve to be on the same screen. Shut the [ __ ] up. Oh, Hines’s wish. Rossy doesn’t have any points this series. Fortunately for him, two goals and an assist. Is it two or three? No, you’re two goals, one one assist. All right, we’re getting closer and closer to overtime, man. 3 minutes and what was it? 50 seconds. My heart can’t take this. Anthony, you saying Vegas still only one shot this period? That’s what it’s showing on my end. I’m watching national. They’re watching local. ESPN just announced Flurry was the first person pulled out of the retirement home to play in the playoffs. See, Vegas, was he was he picked up in the minivan or All right, there’s another good save by Flurry a little bit ago. Vegas um able to set up a little bit in the Wild zone, which is concerning me. I know there’s only threeish minutes on the clock here, just over 3 minutes on the clock here, but still the Wild, they’ve been getting the better of Vegas here defensively, guys, but like they haven’t been able to set up in Vegas zone and get a cycle going. Vegas is able to at least get the puck back down to the blue line, send it to the right, try to get to Eeko to set something up or just a shot to slow things down. There’s a save there by I got puck froze at 3:05. Um, yep. Transit van. Yeah, we’re going to TV timeout. Probably the last one, unless we [ __ ] Unless the last three minutes of this period are like the last six minutes of the last one, which it felt like an end to an NBA game. There were so many whistles. Yeah, those are all just dumb things that you have to call too. Yeah, I can’t stand basketball, but like go Wolves, I guess. They had a good end of the game yesterday, but or was it yesterday? The day before, Sunday, I can’t remember. They they finished. Um, is LeBron still super tough? Was he ever so tough? He’s so tough. Isha, I guess, yeah, neither of you two watch basketball, but surely you guys have seen the meme uh from LeBron in the game the other day where he is like down on the ground and they he like peaks to see if the refs are still looking at him. And I was like, man, honestly though, like, let’s be honest, that’s absolutely misrepresented. He’s like looking to see if he can actually see out of it because he’s that delusional that he thinks that he lost his vision. Did you guys see what just happened? I don’t even know if I can see anymore. Still in TV timeout, by the way. I I can’t stand him. I like he’s the reason that I don’t like basketball in a nutshell. They’re not allowed to fight. So that’s why I don’t like basketball. That’s like my answer to most sports except for curling. I [ __ ] love curling. But honestly, there’s still some fights that go down at the Scotties. No, they do. At the Scotties sometimes, so Scotty’s in Canada is a really big deal. And funny enough, their theme song on TSN is a complete ripoff of the World Junior song, but that’s a story for another day. Um, it’s the provincial tournament, so like best in Alberta, best in Saskatchewan, best, you know, best of the provinces. And dude, few and far between, but like there’s some fights every now and then. SVP says he’s going to lead Sports Center with whatever happens in this game. He’s going to what? Lead Sports Center like open up. I heard leave Sports Center and I’m like lead. Sorry. What? I’m not puckered. No, that’s that’s my bad. I’m I’m like doing the the deep deep voice whi whisper thing. You’re going to be pretty conflicted on this one, but I’ve got a scotch I’m busting out that represents your favorite TV series. Oh, yeah. It’s a stupid show. You’re a stupid show. I was watching was it uh go watch Kenny versus Spenny? Was it the that that uh Ultimate Fighter show? You’re going to get it. Uh Dave, uh I am from Canada, live in Minnesota. Hoppy’s from Minnesota. Dev originally from Minnesota, but not living in Minnesota right now. Yeah, we’re all over the place. What about you, Dave? It is it is a really funny microcosm that like pretty much the entire coverage of our channel except for now Brett who jumped on with you partway through this year. None of us Sure. and Matteo jumping in partway through the season too. But like prior to that, our whole channel is run by people that are not primarily Wild fans. Well, the Sodapod started in Canada. They all have a different team, but all still like pull for the Wild. Yeah. Yeah. Which is very funny. all have a rooting interest in the Wild, but like half of us or more than half of us like that’s not our like favorite team, but like I said, it adds a good uh it it adds to the makes it way easier to be unbiased. Yeah. Yeah. Uh Dave saying, “Originally from Michigan, been living in Minnesota most of my life. Also lived in Oakville, Ontario.” Dude, well Dave can empathize with me. We’ve lived both both sides of the border. Isha, you didn’t live in Ontario for very long. No, not for very long. Very small. You went to private school. I did one year. Shout out to my uncle. Shout out to my uncle. His parents got a real nice marriage. Boys, I’m just going to say you should pay attention. Yeah. Anyone watching? Final minute, guys. Attention. Final minute. I got a minute 20. Nope. Like just pay attention and trust me. Oh, let’s go. Let’s go. Oh my god. What a [ __ ] rush to the net. And Hartman prancing after go ahead go dude rushes it. Not quite as pretty as Baldies. Not quite as pretty as Baldies, but rushes to the crease as well. What a celebration as well. [Music] The running man, Sally Heartsy. Look at this. Look at this. Just like where the [ __ ] who was that? Who was that on the on the right side for Vegas? What the [ __ ] was he doing? PetriAngelo dude just left him there to rush the net off his off the knee and the running man. What a s. Holy [ __ ] It was a kicking motion by the goalie. No, let’s see. It’s under review. ESPN. It wasn’t No, it wasn’t a kicking motion. says that there’s no coaches challenge. So, this is straight from Toronto. Yo, what’s up, Bobby? Good to see you. I tuned in at the right time, I guess. Yes, you did. Good to see you, Bobby. No, where were you when called the go-ahad go? Oh, there’s no way that that’s a kick. How is that a kick? There’s not a kick. Oh, that’s not happening. That’s There is no freaking way. Everyone in Toronto is just drunk because their team lost the Sanders and they’ve been boozing for the last [ __ ] hour and a half. I couldn’t I couldn’t go. There we go. Okay, that it deflected in. Let’s go. No kicking motion. And the Wild are up by one. First time leading in this game with one minute remaining. [ __ ] Isa, we might have to stay on extended if it’s still 1-1 LA Edmonton. That’s assuming that the Wild don’t blow a minute 15. Shut the [ __ ] up, Hobby. Dev, you’re ahead of us. Chill. Let’s be clear, Dev. If I didn’t say that, I would have Dev pauses to sync up with us right now. No, I didn’t. I did not do that. Vegas is challenged. Please count. That’s moronic. That’s so dumb. The ref was explaining too long on that one. Started. Oh my god. He’s trying to challenge off sides. Oh, then maybe not. Uh, it looks good to me. I haven’t seen Be chill, bro. Be chill. Okay. [ __ ] I I don’t know. I think it looks clean. It It’s cuz it’s Okay. So, it’s the whole It’s the whole body extended now, isn’t it? Didn’t they change it? As long as I think as long as part of you is Oh, no. Jeez. What the heck? Just allow. Yeah. You know what? Yeah, just allow. Just allow. No goal. You got to be [ __ ] kidding me. No way. Let’s be clear. This is not at all in reaction to what just happened because I’ve said this countless times. Damage. This is not what the offsides review was meant for. Oh yeah. It’s insane. But again, the player is still like across the blue line like that. I don’t know. I’m I’m not saying it’s wrong. I’m saying I don’t support it. Like I get it, but I feel like uh I feel like I feel like they shouldn’t have gotten the opportunity to look at it through a magnifying glass like that. But anyways, good old offside or good old challenge rule. Everyone gets that. Yeah, good old challenge rule. Stop talking. Don’t jinx it. Anyways, clock’s ticking down. 45 on the clock. And the Wild Haven have it in the Vegas [Music] zone. Oh man, we’re going to stay up for this one, boys. We’re staying up late for this one. Dev a little bit later. Dev even a little bit later indeed. Man, what uh I mean what’s concerning is like is this uh is this a momentum killer or do you think like that going you know having a break for overtime here they can they can be able to regroup. I don’t want a regroup. I want to keep going. Yeah. Wow. They’re playing really great right now. Going back to the locker room only hurts. Damn. Final seconds here, guys. And Zucilla just showed up the face off. But that’s going to do it, guys. Uh, I want the chance to be challenged. They haven’t switched back to be a gold. Ghost Nyquis. That’s the one we all remember. Story. No. Chill. Misappropriation. All right. I’ll be right back. All right. You had a text. Yeah. Oh, man. Well, going to OT. Going back to OT. And Mark Andre Flurry. Will he will he be starting OT? Is Gus okay now to go? No. Marco J Flurry I imagine is going to be starting OT. Oh, again a little bit of a kick in the balls there because what a I mean what a win that would have been Hoppy but Alaska going to overtime and you know technically it was offside but I don’t like I don’t like that either. I don’t like that either. Is it tech? I don’t know how. Okay. The skate was offside. Was the whole body? No. The but but one skate was offside, right? Dumb. Uh, how’s it possible to review something twice so stupid? We did it once. We can do it again. Nice second round pick. We gave up for that clown. Yeah, Minnesota Wild fans hate Nyquis right now. It’s not his fault that Garen made that trade. I pushed I pushed back a little bit on Twitter and oh man, first time I had to mute a thread because I was like, “Oh my god, guys.” Like I understand, but like it’s just too much at this point. It’s just too much. And I kept poking the bear a little bit, but honestly, the best uh the best period for the Wild so far in this game was this third one. and they were almost rewarded with the with the game there with how well they’ve been play with well how how well they’ve been playing this period. Um I mean for me my takeaways was just how good defensively they’ve been they were able to finally halt Vegas from moving the puck in the zone. I mean a couple chances there. It wasn’t every single play and they were able to finally get pucks on net. They were finally able to come back and get some shots on net. uh made it closer than it’s been uh for most of the game. But um I mean other than the things that I just highlighted there, hoppy, what were what were your other takeaways? [ __ ] the refs. I don’t know. It’s I like the way they played since Flurry came in. I don’t know if that’s a jolt because the boys want to play for Flurry. I don’t know if that was just like the adrenaline kick of like, oh [ __ ] we don’t have cuffs anymore. we better freaking play. I don’t know if that’s the arena completely flipping vibes because like all of a sudden Vegas is cheering for the Wild, but going into this intermission is super unfortunate because everything was trending in the Wild’s direction and now you get the refresh and it’s probably erased. Does not mean that they can’t win. Like I thought it was an interesting game before that all happened, but it’s just like damn vibe eraser is never great. Yeah. And and KV though agreed 100%. I think the confusion came in like was there a rule change or they talking about the rule change where it said the whole body or is it just still skate? Because I I thought it was still just like the skate. Maybe it is just the skate and the rule change was that it doesn’t have to necessarily be touching the ice. Oh, okay. But I thought it was more like your body and it doesn’t have to be touching the ice, which is why I thought that that should have been good. But like if they reviewed it, like clearly they’re going off of the rule. Like it would have been very obvious that it was on side. Yeah, cuz the skate was over. Like we’re not Yeah, we’re not disagreeing. Skate was over. Ass wasn’t. So like clearly that’s not how the rule is. Oh [ __ ] It is 2-1 Edmonton. Gross. Uh, Isa, do you think the Wild are going to win this series? Um, I didn’t think they would going in and I’m going to, you know, stick to my prediction. So, Oh, okay. I was going to say, let’s be real. Obviously, okay. If if the Wild win this series, who would you rather play? Man, based on how good LA’s been playing, like I kind of don’t want them to play LA now. Correct. Which is why I’m absolutely pulling for Edmonton. Yeah, but like again, I’m not a Wild fan. Like I know it’s good. I mean, I guess for the sake of the channel, it’s like I should I should be wanting the Wild to get the the the I guess the best matchups to go more, but like I just Well, let’s be real. I just think LA it’s it’d be fun to see them play more hockey in the playoffs, too. So, I guess I guess for me, I’m I’m happy either way. But yeah, if you’re worried about views, the answer’s LA. If you’re worried about the Wild having a better chance to advance, it’s Edmonton. It’s Edmonton. Yeah. But like the the storylines with LA between the FIA trade, looking at the hatred Drew Dowy, dude, straight up Drew Dowy living rentree and every Minnesota Wild fan’s head. Like that would be a really fun series to cover. I just think that that one’s going to be harder for the Wild to come out on top than Vegas. Yeah. Or sorry, than Jesus. Also true. Also harder than Vegas. But no, that’s not true. Vegas is better. Yeah. No, but I don’t know. Oh, the Keer storyline would also be very fun. Yeah. No, there there’s a lot there. Yeah, there’s a lot of meat meat on the bone there for sure. Um, yeah. No. And Carolina tonight, they stamped their ticket into the next round. Toronto couldn’t get it done. Couldn’t get it done. the chat was saying that like Toronto actually had like a lot of good opportunities in that game and they like they they played a good game overall. Um but I mean how just a textbook Toronto would it be for them to choke and b I mean I would just be elated. So definitely uh definitely on the senator’s train for now. And Washington again I don’t have as much hate for the Montreal Canadians as Toronto. I just don’t like Montreal. So, it’s nice to see OV’s team take out the Young Guns there. Um, which I imagine I don’t think Montreal’s going to going to come back in that series. I mean, bro, no, ain’t no way you can challenge two times. I think one of them was Toronto. Yeah, the first one wasn’t a challenge. That was like an official review. Yeah. Uh, pumping Kool-Aid. If you were told right after seeing Flurry take the net that we’d go to OT, you’d take that. What’s up, sloth? Toronto choking the playoffs as a hockey tradition. Exactly. Exactly. No, dude. Did you Isa, you would have been beside yourself. [ __ ] BARS on the ESPN call for that game. unprovoked just says, “And you can see a decent amount of empty seats down closer to the ice, which is a Leaf’s tradition.” I’m like, “Dear Lord.” Oh, let’s go. The weirdest stray shot ever. I love it. I love it. I figured you would. Uh DCP, good to see you. A Blues fan here. I’m excited for tomorrow. Blues have been competitive against the Jets. Let’s see if they can get a win on the road. Bro, DCP Music, I disagree entirely. They have not been competitive. They have dominated that series and it’s unfortunate that it’s tied two to two. Straight up like Blues are the better team right now. I I didn’t think Hellabuk was going to hella buck again and he hella buck he’s hella bucking again and Jimmy is going full Jimmy. Wow. I mean, he’s he’s been unreal. Like, he’s I wouldn’t go that far, but he’s Well, I mean, he’s been a storyline. He’s been part of the storyline almost almost every game. He’s had great moments and contributing. It’s more for me just like I did not think he’d step in and be firstline guy in the playoffs. Oh, good for him. For sure. Uh, how about my cousin School Western Michigan? Good for them, says Dave. Yeah, he was. Does that mean the school your cousin goes to or you cheer for a school that views them as their cousin? Genuinely curious. I actually way too complicated. I want I want to know the context. Seems like a good dude. Good to see Angus. It’s been a while, sir. Angus has been a subscriber to the channel since like day one. Um hoping that the Blues pull it off up late tonight. Dude, I’ll be pulling for Jimmy. Um, I have no problem with that. Yo, what’s up, Ben? Good to see you, Ben. They almost had it. They scored, but it was called off due to a offside. Nice. Come on, Blues. I got five Bills on them to win the series. Uh, it’s my cousin. He’s going to Western Michigan. I didn’t think this would be hard. I’m sorry. I’m a big grammar guy, Dave. So when you said my cousin’s school instead of my cousin’s school, I did not I genuinely wasn’t sure if it was a like mistype or if you meant something different. Not at all like coming at you. I was just I wanted to make sure I understood. Good to see you, Angus. Uh what jersey is going up next season to replace Ross? Oo, good question. Good question. Uh Milro, who do you want to not be with the Wild anymore? Because that’s Yeah. Every jersey. Yeah. You have a you have a FIA one. You got a Pitlick. You got Rossy. Better question. Who do you want me to like test the boundaries of Jinxing? Like who do you think could never be sent away that I get a jersey and we see can it happen? Yeah. No, for sure. For sure. Z, it’s YouTube. You’re a smart guy. Yeah. YouTube will get very angry. We don’t own the rights, buddy. Nice to hear ESPN broadcast. Give props a wild. But if you need uh like focused playbyplay, I can definitely I can definitely do that uh once it starts. We were kind of shooting the breeze hanging out during the third period hanging out with you guys reading chat. But like for those who are like driving and don’t have the feed, just let me know and we can go back to just the the playbyplay and OT. Uh took an regrettable rumplement shot. You don’t know compliments. It’s not enjoyable. So, I’m wondering if it’s regrettable because he took it as a celebration and then it didn’t count or if it’s just regretting that he took a rumplement shot. Sorry, Rusty. I don’t think I’ve ever had this. Don’t. German style liquor. Oh, peppermint schnobs. Nope. I’m good. Yeah, not my style. I don’t like any schnobs. None. I don’t know about that. Can you buy a Nyquist one for the next one? Dude, I got I got some cash. I got some cash. I don’t think I I don’t think I’ll have it in time. And I don’t think the Guju works that quick. I’ve had this Frosty one up for like four or five years and he’s finally leaving. So, and yeah, uh no worries on the confusion there, my buddy Dave. I have no problem blaming Apple for everything that happens. Who’s going to win the Wild Mark? They almost won. They almost won. Th This is tough cuz they were having such a good third period and I mean even a couple moments after and a couple chances after the goal was called back and you know the the last minute they were they were looking good as well. So it’s going to be interesting to see if they can bring that same energy, that same momentum uh into overtime. Your boy Dev is back. That’s perfect because I’m going to go piss and be ready for overtime. Uh, Angus saying got ESPN up just hate their sport sports center vibe as we all do. As we all do, missed it, but he said you should get hype one. I’ll save this comment. Both, bro. I got drunk of rumble mints. Never again. That was like my uh I had my first fireball experience in college, not high school. And uh like most of the idiots. And I can’t even I can’t even go near those cinnamon hearts anymore because of that. It’s just no. No. But uh peppermint schnobs, that’s Yeah. It’s something I’ll never I’ll never go near. Oh my god. Yeah. I just I can’t And you know, I will say this. Oh my god. Yeah. No. No. I in in fairness, I haven’t tried since I was 23, so I don’t I don’t know. Um but it was my fault. It was like I was broke college kid and it was my friend’s birthday. We went hiking in the morning like early and at for lunch we brought like uh some fireball and I think it was like pretty cold. It was like in the winter and like some hot chocolate to mix in like some stuff and I was like we had a little bit of the bottle left at the end of the night and I was like I’m just going to bring it bring this and I just continued to drink that sugar [ __ ] [ __ ] and I got too messed up. Never. Isa, have I told you I I must have. Have I told you your roommates’s fireball story? No, but we’ll put that one on the shelf at last next time. First thing I’ve said, uh, you should get a height jersey. The first thing I’ve said, don’t actually don’t actually put I love this the followup. Don’t actually put the height jersey up. I was kidding. I was going to say that’s that’s like the one prospect that you can’t talk to me like that about. her clean effort the rest of the way. Schnobs can’t be worse than the upscale cough syrup called Jagger Mice. Dude, no. Angus, I’m totally with you. I think Yag is straight poison. I cannot stand the black licorice flavor. It’s so bad. Do a thin mint shot. Put some Hershey’s syrup. Oh, so Dangy is my guy Dangy is at the game. Okay. And he he said that the uh the Vegas crowd started booing the refs when they skated on for to start overtime, which is insane to me. That’s a choice. Interesting. I don’t like I’m not Did they all want to go home? Yeah. I don’t know. It’s pretty late in Vegas right now. Yeah, it’s it’s what 9:00 10 o’clock there. Almost 10 time. Yeah. Um, Gold Slogger is the worst hangover I’ve ever had in my life. I’ve never had Gold Slogger and I like really wanted to try it though just because of Super Bad. Super Bad. Yeah. Yeah. Uh, drinking local brew. Hey, shout out to Angus. A nice dark brown. Civil life dark brown. Yeah. Hot takes. Not the best decision. Uh, dub speed. Oh my god. Dub speed. I’m gonna time you out for that, dude. We got We’ll see you back in 15 minutes. I don’t stand for that [ __ ] in live chats cuz a lot of people some people aren’t some people aren’t watching and they’re like, “Oh, really? Really?” And then it just [ __ ] [ __ ] everything up. So Jupser’s poison disgusting. That makes Jagger Kula and was surprisingly amazing. Why is it Kula? Where did that second Sorry, what did I say? Hawaiian. Yeah, we almost got the most [ __ ] goal of all [ __ ] goals. All right, we are back, guys. We are back. I would take a [ __ ] All right, I’m going to refresh. So, you could probably mix anything with Kalúa and it would probably be good because Kalúa is just that good. What about Kula though? Oh my god. It’s just Hawaiian and Kalúa, right? Why is Why is Lula Hawaiian? I don’t know. Combining Kalúa and and Hoola. Kua. At least he had something. Kuao would work. Yeah, Kua. Kua would be better. Yeah, Dev, you’re still going to be a little bit ahead of me here. So if anything hap if anything of significant note happens uh Oh, you’ll be able to tell. I’m not hiding it. I’m sorry. No, no, please don’t. Please don’t. Uh I still have nightmares of drinking pepper at 14 just off a Fremont Dark Star. All right. Wait, why did someone get banned? Uh because he was [ __ ] with the chat saying that the Wild scored, notably a full minute before the period started. I mean, at that point, it’s on you if you believed him. No, that’s not going to fly. I don’t ban any I don’t ban anybody ever, but that’s that’s even Well, that’s that that’s factually incorrect now. Well, yeah. I say that’s my that’s my one rule. So, it’s not even a ban. It’s just like a timeout, right? Yeah. Yeah. That’s just 15 minutes. Just slap on the wrist. Don’t be a dick. 15 minutes. Yeah, that’s most I mean, I wish I could do it less, but you That’s minimum for YouTube. So, I like that YouTube is like sit in the corner and think about what you’ve done. And And he can still probably I think he can still watch the stream. He just can’t comment. So, he’s he’s probably left. He’s probably just like, “Screw you guys. I’m going home.” Or he’s like, “Oh, Flurry with the I don’t think forced to make that one. I wasn’t paying attention.” Yeah, he wasn’t forced to make that one save. It didn’t get through traffic, but Vegas was some pressure now. I wasn’t paying attention. ESPN hasn’t told me his flurryette. Yeah. Yeah. I was about to make that joke, but that is funny. Spurgeon almost lost a testicle. Cholula and Ku Kalúa. Uh, I banned Logan Culie’s side girl after she came into our chat saying a lot of bad things. No way. I want to know what things she said. I got to find that stream. I would never ban that. I I would let that ride. I wouldn’t show it on the screen, but I would let it ride. Oh man. Great opportunity by Vegas. Went wide though. And Flurry’s been in position in reading these plays, reading uh these shots. Also, wait, no, Jup. I need more details here. How do you know it was Logan Coolie’s side girl? Did she come in and say, “Hey guys, I’m Logan Coul’s side girl and I’m here to talk shit.” She’s saying a lot of bad things. So, I mean, maybe she made it known like like you said like I this is who I am. I need I need more. This is fascinating. I got to find that episode and see if the you can still read like some of the live chats from the streams. I’m sorry. So, your plan is to go through every single live stream that Gover Buck Lab has ever done and you’re going to sort through them and you’re going to watch the entire thing. I don’t have time. I mean, I I would and I want to, but I don’t have time right now. That’s That’s just a weird thought. All right. Oh, hell yeah. All right. Why Why next falling? Beautiful save by Flurry. I mean, man, coming in cold. He’s been on his game so far, but Vegas pushing so far near overtime. Another shot from the outside. Wild need to get this out. Eric’s neck trying to get this puck back. At least he separates the man from it. And but they the Vegas Gold Knights still have it. Good work up the left side. Blue line shot. Oh, what a save. Man, Eeko has been buzzing this shift. Has two has had two great opportunities. For check has been really good. 17 famously, whoever wins this game is more likely to win the series. So, this is big. You know, I was trying to make trying to figure out make that joke. Vegas couldn’t dig that one in, but yeah, the Wild looking a little shaky here to start indeed. Hot takes. This has been all Vegas. Vegas. Vegas so far. But it’s been whenever I see Rocky, I go directly to Rocky loves Emily. Anyone doesn’t get that joke, we probably aren’t going to hang. So I love Three Ninjas. That probably the greatest movies of my childhood. I don’t get 80% of Hoppy’s references, but like I feel like like the ones I do, Hoppy’s proud Hoppy’s proud of me. Like that that’s a good one. I I am actually very surprised that that’s the one that you get. It’s like the deep cuts ones. You’re like, “Wait, you’ve actually seen that?” Like, you know, all these popular comedy movies or you’ve seen them but just don’t remember the line. Eel is the deal. Should have nabbed him. No, Rusty. Eel is a locker room cancer. Absolute liability. Will never win. Bandaid actually always injured. Oh, that surgery. about as upset as I’ve ever been with Minnesota Wild Twitter. It’s just like the the flat out lies that were being thrown around about Jack Eel. They weren’t going to get him. Like there wasn’t a way to make it work with the cap. But the fact that people were like, I don’t care about the money. Jack Eel is a problem and he shouldn’t be here. Like, oh, you’re a [ __ ] Don’t talk to me. uh Boldley got it to favor, but he didn’t have enough room to make a play a little bit ago, but Vegas gets it back into the Wild Zone. Wild forces back to center. It’s always really like unsettling to me when there’s a center ice face off that’s not after a goal or to start a period. Yeah, it always makes me feel weird. Oh, and it looks like we have a penalty. The chat is making me think bad things are happening. So, penalty, I think. Oh. Yep. I kind of figured it would end up being a goal. [ __ ] that’s a emotional damage. Season is over. And that is it, ladies and gentlemen. Moments after that center ice face off. Oh, that’s a tough one. That’s a tough one. Hoppy called it too. Hoppy called it too, saying momentum gone. Momentum gone after taking a break and starting this overtime. And it basically has been all Vegas all overtime. Yeah, they’re able to keep that pressure in the offensive zone, keep that puck alive, get it to center, and the goal there. Damn, big. What the [ __ ] What? What is John Merrill doing? He’s doing John Merrill things. What What is John Merrill doing? As the goal the extended goal bell is going, the Wilder already already down the tunnel. Why is John Merrill at the top of the circles when the puck is behind the net? Mero, but they didn’t need Zeve. I I’m I’m so mad. Why are they even pairing the fifth line with the three pairing defense coach? Absolute idiot. Hines will blame Rossi. I knew Merrill would cost them. Oh yeah. wide open in the slot, man. Why is Merryill on the ice in OT? I mean, story of the last few years, right? He was the clear choice to play today, obviously. No, he’s even OT, but this is cool. I’m not even mad that Merryill played, but that is unac. Honestly, throughout the whole game, he hasn’t been bad, but that’s unacceptable. He was on the ice before. He was on the ice before uh he had a shift because he he he almost capitalized on that um Baldi uh takeaway. Saber had a breakaway, man. Too bad Nyquis couldn’t drag his foot on the offside rush. Yep. Uh bottom line pair on the ice in OT genius. That’s the joke. Oh yeah, sorry. I’m I’m so mad. There’s not one Wild player I wouldn’t trade. Well, that’s weird. Yeah. And that’s that’s just over that’s uh that that’s the anger speaking. That’s the anger speaking. I trade Capri off. He sucks in the playoffs. But yeah, the guy that’s first in scoring in the whole [ __ ] league. We’ll give we’ll give Troy a pass until the emotions uh go down a little bit. But uh Wild almost came back to win the game in the third. Bro, if Leanta says anything negative about Rossia, I’m going to break things. Hobby might have to explain the gopher version of this for defenseman on the ice. Don’t let him re relive that drama too soon. Yeah, it might always be too soon. That one that was that was tough. Honestly though, like like obviously everyone who followed 2023 knows that famously we didn’t put our best line or our best D pair out on the ice to start overtime. I’m not even mad about that decision because my anger came like in the second period when the team basically went shell defense. And my father, who bless his soul, doesn’t know [ __ ] about hockey, looks over to me and says, “Holy [ __ ] they’re going to lose this game, aren’t they?” as they’re up two zero. And I’m like, I don’t have a good argument against that. Like I think something was dangerous lead. He did not comment on that. I probably would have been upset if he did, but ah dude, what the [ __ ] Cosgrav, have you just like just one of those days like covered the screen throughout this because I’ve had the backwards hat on this whole time. I mean, it’s just the beard changing subject. It’s not even It’s not even the same shade. Well, I guess staying on the staying on the subject of Fred Durst, my buddy has a new bit that he’s going to try out because he he lives in a college town. Is it just a bit? Well, yeah. He he’s he’s going to try out this new bit where he dresses up like Fred Durst and exclusively sings lint biscuit songs at karaoke. Nice. And uh he buys a drink for the first person to get it. Nice. But the I told him I think there’s a very real chance that it’ll be like weeks. That’s good. That’s good though. Uh the old 62 series loss after being up 21. Guys, get your comments in. Get your comments in. We’ll stay on a little bit longer here as the Wild lose yet another close one. 3-1 Edmonton with 20 seconds left. I know. It sucks, too. I mean, at least Toronto lost tonight. So, I I know all Wild fans here are going to be pissed off going to bed. I will at least have a wonderful sleep smiling knowing that Leafs fans are feeling the same as Wild fans here tonight. Um, you know what sucks too is I think that we still have the goal differential the stat up but I mean I think we’re still like plus two or plus three. Dub show speed. Welcome back. I don’t ban anyone but just don’t do that [ __ ] in the live chat again. You can swear you want. You can say [ __ ] on Tuesday. [ __ ] any team but like just don’t don’t do that in the chat. No, no, you’ll actually be boosted and you can survive one banning if you talk [ __ ] about Toronto. Yeah, honestly, you’re my new my new favorite commenter. You’re like the only person I ever banned, but now you’re my favorite subscriber, assuming you’ve subscribed because yo, [ __ ] Toronto, dudes. Uh, hey, see you later, Jonathan. Thank you so much for joining. Uh, I would like a power play if we had a quarterback on our team. Well, hopefully Zeve becomes that guy. I mean, he just came from the NCAA. I think there’s more wrong with our power play than just a quarterback for it. But agreed. I feel bad cuz Merryill’s not a bum, but on that goal, he was a bum. Car was responsible with the first goal against us. Carl got beat. That’s true. Well, that’s true. It was a bad kind of. Well, and he uh he he was just getting beat on the one-on-one battles tonight where it’s like I know. Okay, but how is how is William Carlson just chilling in the slot by himself? Oh, true. On on a short-handed attempt like Sure. but Yeah. And and Flurry like I mean he he had his moments coming in play great. Yeah. I mean didn’t didn’t get peppered too much at the end of the third period. Overtime was like holy crap. And again, the goal that won the game for the Vegas Golden Knights. I’m not blaming Flurry for that one. We we we’re all blaming the We’re all blaming Mel for that. Flurry was great, man. Yeah, that’s all, folks. Uh I don’t know what question Calvin Pequard is the answer to, man. I think Flower will finish with seven saves. Ego should be banned. Damn right I did. Uh, thank you so much, Dub Show Speed. Uh, yay. GG, UK Knight. We got, uh, Knock on with We got Knock on with a few more games here. Well, good night, guys. Better luck in game six. Thanks, Dave. I’ll tell you guys, um, you know, over at Wild Tix and 10K, I I said if I’m going with my head, it’s Vegas and six, but if I’m going with my heart, it’s Wild and seven. And uh I still feel it. Yeah. Well, I mean that’s uh related to like what VGO’s commenting here. I feel like the Wild staff have seemed fairly resilient throughout the season. Does anything they say postgame mean something to you? I’m not looking for anything in particular, but there’s definitely things they can say that would make me go, “Oh shit.” Like, dude, straight up. Like, let’s go to the press conferences the last couple games for LA. That’s a team that’s [ __ ] reeling and I could have told you Edmonton was going to win this game. Like he is so defensive. Like them asking like, “Hey, it seems like you guys start games really well and then finish them really shitty. Anything you want to do to fix that?” And he’s like, “Oh, it’s your favorite question.” Huh? It’s actually a very valid question that everyone wants the answer to, but okay. Weird move. Yeah. Yeah. Shro was without a home on that play. I blame Nyquist on the game. Are two OT losses were defenseman not in the right positions. All right, let let’s let’s stop though. Like Nyquist has been Yeah, I don’t know why I don’t know why W fans are going so hard on Nyquist. Like I don’t I don’t get it all. Yeah, but I feel like they’re not even watching any like I mean tonight Yeah, you could be angry because of the offside, but like Well, but they’re trying to use that as their launching pad for anger and I think it’s rude even though he’s been disappointing. I’m not defending him. But to look at that and say he’s the reason we lost that game is crazy. Well, thing I I don’t think he’s an anchor for the team. I just think he’s like he just hasn’t been elevating them. He’s there, you know. He’s like he hasn’t had horrendous shifts. He hasn’t had, you know, insanely good shifts. He’s just kind of been hovering on the good. He’s not an anchor. He’s just weighing them down, prohibiting them from moving forward. Kind of like an anchor. I don’t Oh, wow. Interesting. He uh Stop it. Brian Carter’s hair game is so on point. Uh, what else we got here? There were a lot of Capri off flabs tonight. I I agree. I agree with this. Um, you got to you got to learn uh not to be that guy when you’re reading YouTube chats cuz people type worse than me. Uh, fourth line and third pairing out there still blowing my mind. I mean, it was just The fourth line isn’t a problem. It was just normal shifts. And Hoppy’s right. Like it’s not like Yeah. It’s not like the fourth line was like surprise. The fourth line is arguably our second or third best line anyways. So like agreed. I’m sorry. No, they were probably our worst line tonight just because they’re they weren’t great at forking series. Oh, I I I understand. I completely agree with you. Tonight they were not great. I mean, they weren’t bad, but like, you know, tonight I would say they were not our best line for sure, but um I don’t know, man. It’s just I I think you nailed it, Hoppy, of like there’s nothing in particular that’s going to make us be like, “Oh, yeah, this is, you know, this is, you know, this is how it’s going to go or whatever.” But like there will definitely be signs like I thought actually how they responded after um game four was actually really really good and I had a lot of confidence going into this one. Um obviously that didn’t pan out. We were you know [ __ ] six millimeters away from having it pan out but OD’s a faster skater than Nyquis. He would have been over the line. I’m just saying. Is Ghost Nyquest? Yeah, apparently. Okay. So, I don’t know. I don’t know. I think Ogrren actually it would have been it would have been called right right there. They wouldn’t even have got the goal because Ogrren’s fast. Proxen. Is that supposed to be Capri off? Probably. Maybe I maybe it’s like speech to text. Um I don’t know how you get a Proxin out of Capri off. I’m guessing it’s him. I think because Bold Yeah. And it can’t be Baldi cuz Baldi was he had a good the person that was uh hitting malort shots. Maybe that I don’t think this was I don’t think Capriovv had a great game but like I don’t know for me say it was his weakest game of the series but that’s also yeah for me the passing his passing u was it what did the word someone said here blunders or whatever. Like for me it was him just losing the one-on-one battles which again like it’s not like he’s the strongest guy out there but like he’s usually he usually holds his own whereas tonight like he was even just a step behind sometimes and like having to chase guys down where it’s like no man you got to you got to be there as well. What’s crazy to me is Thank you. I think we can all agree this is the Wild’s worst game of the series and it still wasn’t that bad. Like yeah, I’m actually like very encouraged by the fact that like this is the worst we’ve looked and still been pretty like competitive and competent. Lot of things that could have gone better. But uh money puck, do they already have the expected goals and deserve to win the deserve? Hold on. I’m I’m betting that the deserve to win meter is like Vegas 6065. Wait, Isa, were you the one that like thought the play made up? Yeah. Okay. Yeah. I thought it was made up. I was like, “We broke that news to him.” I was like, “What the [ __ ] are you talking about?” Yeah. Which is still incredible to me that you didn’t know that. I never make fun of somebody for like not knowing a thing like that cuz you know, every day I don’t know anything. Everything is an opportunity to learn. There’s no way that you’ve never made fun of someone for not knowing something. Dude, this is literally like the fifth time I’ve brought up money puck. So, it’s a Let me rephrase that. I try not to make fun of people for not knowing a thing. That’s more accurate. Yeah. Not always successful. See, Deb, I often try to be a good person. It just doesn’t really work that often. Yeah, he doesn’t try. That’s That’s a goddamn lie. That’s No, I I try. He’s literally correcting people’s spelling here in our YouTube chat. No, tell me that that’s not a reasonable thing. The cousin I’m like I’m banned. It says the guy banned the one guy for Can you go to the game channel for this one? Cuz I I want to see if and they may not have it up yet, but [Music] that looks like Oh, there it is. the this is the this is the craziest thing ever. What did I say? 60%. I was pretty [ __ ] close. Yeah. I mean, they sim the games. That’s crazy. I mean, it’s spoiler alert. It’s just expected goals. They have Faber wearing the t-shirt that like, God bless Soda Stick. They do a lot of cool stuff, but they literally got this reference backwards. Marco Rossi should not be in the car, the limo, sorry, saying, “Good day, mate.” Marco is the Austrian. He should be the one outside of the freaking vehicle. Anyone that’s ever seen Dumb and Dumber knows it. It It drives me [ __ ] crazy that they got it backwards. I’m so It always comes down to Dumb and Dumber. So upset. You don’t disrespect a cinematic masterpiece like Dumb and Dumber. Uh, Horox. Uh, who do we change for game six? Honestly, we definitely need to change Gus’s diaper. Zeve is Zeve is back in. Zeve is back in for Merrell. I’m calling it. I don’t know. I think Hines is too stubborn. Yeah. I don’t know. Yo, Hunter, they honestly this the faceoffs has been it’s been bad. Like it’s it’s and that’s it. Like look, I’m the biggest Gudro fan in the Twin Cities and he’s been dog [ __ ] in the face off dot this series as well. Rossi has actually been pretty good on the dot though. I haven’t looked at his numbers. I just know that X been carrying good on the dot on the ice for four minutes. Yeah, he was he was good on the he was good on the dot through three games. I haven’t kept up with it the last two, but it was over 50% through three games. Okay. Contri one of the guys contributing. Uh Shrek, uh should we be playing younger guys in the playoffs to get experience? We trust the big bodies. I mean, well, that’s too late for that. Yeah. I I I just don’t think that that’s what you do. If you’ve got a guy that’s like on the fence and you want to get him experience, sure. But I don’t think they’ve got any players they view like that except for Zeve, which again, he played the first four games. Um, I don’t think they view Ogran in that light. I do think Ogran has every chance to make the team next year. If Ogran played the last 20 games, then that’s a different story, right? Then it’s like they he’s not really viewed as a younger body that needs to get experience. Then he’s part of the team. Well, no. I mean, they still pro they maybe they don’t give him a lot of, you know, maybe they don’t work him into the lineup as much. Maybe they give Hinestro him more. You know what I’m saying? I’m just Maybe they take a really good player and bury him on the fourth line and give him five minutes a game. Yeah, that’d be really dumb. Who would case in point? Case in point. Uh, Felo line. He’s definitely been better than Rossy’s line. No, Felo has been better than Rossy’s line. I’ll maybe give you that. Last game, Felino’s line was the second line. This game, Felino’s line was the line that everyone wants to crucify right now. Yeah, Freddy saying fourth line combo. Well, again, Freddy, they started off the OT with the first line and first D combo, right? I mean, people forget that like I I feel like people are forgetting like they they literally had an and they literally had an opportunity like boldly sprung Faber on a partial break and he almost he almost scored, right? So, like it wasn’t like they started the last two. It’s like they, you know, this this is not three on three overtime, too. This is five on five. So, I mean, I get it’s like it’s annoying that it happened with those guys out there because it’s like it’s the the the lesser of the guys, I guess, but like has no idea what you said, but I heard you, Dev. Peace. So, what did you say, Dev? I was just saying I’m heading out. Thank you so much for jumping on. Yeah, it’s 1:15 a.m. here, so Oh, yeah. Get some sleep. Get some sleep. Yeah, I gotta be at work in 5 minutes. No, it’s not. It’s 110 a.m. It’s 110. I’m like, there’s no way that you’re an hour and 5 minutes ahead of me. Yeah. It’s a weird weird thing about [ __ ] right there. Weird thing about North Carolina. You know how like Indiana and Arizona don’t have daylight savings time? We have um five minute time. I figured you were going with like Fubo versus like live stream of the game discrepancy or something. That would have been fun. That would have been better. Anyway, all right, man. We’ll see you later. Uh, no one knows who the chick is, though. Can we please have a wild come all of the ice moments in game six? Oh, I think he meant to say all over the ice. That it’s a joke off of a meme that became pretty popular. I loved it. They had just like a weird looking Capri off face and it just said underneath like the caption was coming all over the ice and it was like damn they really like thank you so much. I’ve seen 10 I’ve seen 10k use as shares it quite a bit. Oh it’s a great one. Uh for what it’s worth is so real in his postgame stuff talking with Gore. He actually cares about what he says. No completely agree. And my comment was definitely not geared in the direction of paper. It was purely the shirt that was made because he didn’t It’s not like he went out and bought it. Like they gave it to him and said wear it. Yeah. Yeah. But no, Brock Brock is I It’s hard for me to say anything negative about Brock. Yeah. Ever. Yeah. We talked about Nightquist. We talked about Mel uh right at the top of the I guess the post game. I’m crucifying Merryill before I’m crucifying Nyquist. I’m sorry. Yeah, me too. Me too. Uh I mean, who are famous Austrians? Uh honestly, Arnold and Marco are the only ones I had. And the chick at the intro to Dumb and Dumber. Uh his or this loss is on Hines. Why the [ __ ] are you putting the fourth line and third line pairing on the ice together in overtime? Man, people can’t get over that in the chat here. Like I get it, but again, I’m I’m just always going to push back and say that the fourth line on paper was not their actual fourth line on production tonight. They could have been better. Sure. But I I understand the sentiment. I’d be pissed. Like, how can you have that line up that way in overtime? That that is a tough look. That is a management issue. That is Hines not doing his job at the time that you need him to do his job the most. Like I I get the criticism. My real push back is just that I don’t view the Rossy line as a true fourth line. That’s it. Um and Northstar I don’t think Ogrren should come in at all. If they want to put take Brazo out, put Hinistros in. That’s my I wouldn’t take Brazo out. I’ I’d take Nyquist out before Brazo. Sorry. Yeah. So, no. I What? Oh, here it is. Yeah. From Hot Takes. We can all agree the Wild should only target top two center in free agency this off season before anything. So, who’s out there? Tell me. Because in free agency, I don’t think it exists. So, who’s the trade target? Everyone scream. Uh, when you play vets with experience over young guys who are more talented, you aren’t playing to win. You’re playing it not to lose. again. Who are you suggesting? No, he’s saying that Zeb shouldn’t have been taken out for Merryill and I agree. Oh, okay. Got you. Got you. Got you. I thought we were talking about Ogrin again. I’m not going to crucify the decision to bring Merryill in like whatever. Like Merryill actually played good down the stretch of the regular season, but taking Zeve out of the lineup is weird. the way they stapled him to the bench after like a very understandable penalty that happens to be a fourminute because [ __ ] rules where oh he bled so it’s four dumbest rule in sports and the fact that you don’t even play him on the power play in that overtime in game four blows my mind that is a coaching [ __ ] choosing to put Marilyn over him in this game like I’m not going to freak out and like overreact. But I agree. I would have rather have Zan than I would have rather have Z in it as Zan as well. From the forwards aspect, I would rather just keep going with what they got to be honest because I don’t think forwards perspective. I’d rather just roll one line and keep it that way. Yeah. Oh, the legend. Uh would you stop Nikos down to the third line for Felo and shake it up that way? Is he already on the third line with Felino? Yeah, he’s Maybe I misunderstood. Would you swap Niky down to the third line for Felino? Yeah. Isn’t Isn’t that the third line? Yeah, I thought it was those two and Freddy, but maybe I totally missed something. Sully season. Don’t get Hoppy going on that. Oh, do it. Do it now. You should not have found Nikkas this season because he’s been a freaking ghost. I just think he hasn’t been good. Yeah, he hasn’t been good. I don’t think he’s been as I I I it’s not even I think I know he hasn’t been as bad as Wild Twitter and half the chat for I mean I think it’s closer to what they say than what you say. Maybe that that maybe that’s fair and maybe it’s just as I’m like okay here’s just another thing for Wild fans to like bit [ __ ] about and blame put all the blame on which like I just don’t put all the blame on him and like I’m not here saying that he’s good. I’m just saying that there’s like you should tell VGO to get out of here with facts. I don’t Facts aren’t relevant here. Margari is a top six center. They need a third line. Yeah, there’s there’s no room for truth and facts here. This is Minnesota Wild we’re talking about. Yeah, them putting it putting it back out there was interesting. Not a fan of that. Not a fan of that. I’ll agree on that, Cole. I’ll agree on that. Hang on. So Cole means like five forwards, right? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Five forwards. Yeah. The chat would I I hope that we do a fiveman power play. Yeah. Let’s put Let’s just put four. Let’s just put four. [ __ ] it. Uh there was once an is really born in December to save us. And [Music] uh the mystery men North Korean mutant 2C that will be unveiled in late August that we signed for 6 etc. We send Rossy to whomever comes up short of the cup for a bag of pucks. What the? Please explain to me what just happened. Yeah, what are you talking about? Is he saying that Yurov is from North Korea? And he’s saying Rossy’s only worth a bag of pucks. That’s my best horox. I’m going to need way more explanation. That was crazy. Uh, so I’m confused. I’m really confused now. But yes, I’m also confused. They added roster to the fourth line to balance the two bigs, but they can put Zeve with Spurgeon or middle or Middleton. Well, they can’t put Z Spurgeon or Middleton. I think they wanted to shelter his minutes and kind of use him as a specialist. Kind of like Kalin Addison except like Zeve is far more proficient defensively than Addison ever was. I just don’t think they were comfortable committing to the minutes that he would have had to munch playing with a Spurgeon, right? Like, and I like candidly, I love Middleton. I think he had great points in the year. I don’t think you want Middleton and Zeve being a a pairing that you feature prominently. That’d be tough. That’d be tough. Um, hot takes is either Sam Bennett I’d be willing to pay up to eight and nine or or we better gear up and be willing to trade Rossy first rounder to get it done. I I don’t think eight and nine for Sam, but I [ __ ] love Sam Bennett. Like if the Wild He’s going to make that. No, no, make no mistake. He will make that. Well, I mean, I keep I keep forgetting like the cap is going up, so I got to stop thinking of like the tier of where Dude, even if he’s probably making eight, dude, just look at the role he fills. And I’m I’m not Look, I Dude, I am a huge fan about diminishing again. I have to get out of being used to what the cap tiers were and start moving forward, right? Which you effectively erased exactly what I said before you interrupted me, which is cap aside, he was going to make at least eight. No question. Because I am not directly comparing him to this player, but it is the Tom Wilson effect. It’s who’s the unicorn that can come in and do the things that you can’t get and still have the and still have the skill to and still have the skill as well. Totally. I I’ve I’ve been a Sam Bennett fan since the [ __ ] Calgary days. Since the Kingston frontax days, man. I don’t watch about a crazy niche for himself. Oh yeah. I don’t watch a lot of OHL and it’s crazy that he played a completely different role in junior and did he this is not the player that was drafted fourth overall. Not at all. No. Uh the the player who got fourth who’s drafted fourth fourth overall was more like Lanny McDonald. Now he looks like Lanny McDonald and plays like [ __ ] Tom Wilson. It’s it’s insane. Yeah, he like that that guy’s dead and has been replaced with the Sam Bennett we know. 18year-old Sam Bennett Jim Houston man on that that call. No, I I’m pretty confident in saying he’ll get eight or nine no problem. The question is where is he willing to go? What’s up? Oh my god, the press are starting. Lex Luthther coming to the stand. Hey, what’s up Cosmo? Just arrived. Put that bomb 41 in the press box. Good lord. OV Capital fan. Yo, what’s up? What’s up? I’m excited for the Capitals to finish the Habs off tomorrow. Me too. Me too. You’re too cocky. Can’t wait for Aita to be out of the playoffs. Aaron, if we assume you have an ogres sign a top six next year, who’s out? Jojo and who else? Jojo’s obviously out. I don’t want to hear any jokes. Hoppy, they’re not resigning him just because he played well at the end of the season. 4×4 NMC, even though he’s actually been pretty decent in the playoffs as well. He’s had some good looks down the stretch of the regular season. He was very good. Playoffs, he’s been fine. Yeah. Yeah. um he’s either been like quiet, like not really like doing things to like lead to to goals um for the opposition, but he’s been either quiet, but when he’s when he’s been noticeable, it’s been like dangerous uh dangerous plays for the opposition there. But anyways, back to the question. Yeah, I mean, I would say that I think it’s more about guys being pushed down the lineup. Like I think a Freddy Gudro who had a great resurgent year is a guy that can play in your bottom six, no questions asked. like that’s he’s tailor made for that kind of a role. Um looking elsewhere like obviously the first line is in some capacity going to be in that top six. Zukarelloo probably in that top six and then you mentioned Oren and Eurovv. So if you really think that’s what it is, there it is. Yeah. Which means Marco Rossi see you ever makes me sad. Uh, dude, I’m I’m rooting for the Kings, too, man. I’m rooting for the Kings, too, Emperor. I want to know Emperor King’s thoughts on their coach because he seems absolutely on tilt and if I were a fan, I would be terrified that my coach is kind of kind of a mental [ __ ] as it appears. The roster’s not the problem. The coach might be. Yeah, Horox has to be treated. Hardox, please come up with a scenario where a team would take Tren if if there’s an offer and let’s be clear, he has been good in the postseason. He’s been fine in this series. I mean, tonight he was a bulldozer, too. He was the problem is we are not a team that can handle a passenger for 82 games who is only a postseason mercenary because we can’t freaking stay healthy and we need every able body we can get. If the Wild could stay healthy all season, yeah, I can handle Trenion as a passenger. But since the dawn of time, the Minnesota Wild cannot stay healthy. So, no, I don’t. But I just don’t know what team’s going to trade for him, especially at that capit. If you’re going to eat half the salary, then like what’s the point in getting rid of just a tank team like the Canucks next year? Uh, I will say Ryan Hartman for the most part had a good performance tonight. him playing [ __ ] hacky sack with the puck on the first delay of game. Like, [ __ ] off, dude. This isn’t beer league. This is the NHL. That one was more than What about beer league? What? Just knocking the puck out just so nonchalantly. Who? Hartman on the first delay of game. That’s fine. But like to dismiss what Cole just said is crazy cuz Ryan Hartman has been great in this postseason. if he can keep. Dude, I didn’t I said the [ __ ] I said he’s bigger. Other than that one blunder tonight where it’s like he looked like a [ __ ] beer league player playing hack sack with the puck. I was like other than that you like went out of their way to emphasize the one blunder versus like it was a pretty big blunder. He’s been a huge plus this postseason. Have to give up a third or four. Like I say, I think the only reason or the only way Trenan is leaving is if a team calls on him. And if the team goes, “Oh, I want you to also, you know, I don’t know, give up more draft picks.” I mean, maybe, maybe, but we’ll see. I think it’s going to take more than a fourth or a fifth. Hines in the Writers Night. Uh, total pros pressor service issues and quotes for game stories. Not much to help understand what’s happening out there. got away with clearly closing both hands on the puck in the crease today. To VGO’s point, I think that kind of worries me that they just know that he’s not going to answer the questions because there’s guys there that aren’t afraid to ask it. It’s more just they they’re teetering the line for some reason. Um I don’t like him and Yeah. Yeah. Nope. Emperor King, I’m with you. I would be worried. Making me a hater. Oh man. Well, we’ve got we’ve got to the end of the comments, guys. Thank you so much for staying on with us a little bit. We held like 50 to 60 strong throughout most of the stream as well. So, appreciate you guys helping uh to build this community. It’s for the people. Absolutely. And thank you guys so much for tuning in again. More playoff coverage throughout the this postseason. Uh wild coverage. At least one more. At least one more. Yeah. And uh and as we continue, I mean, if the Wild do exit in this first round or whenever their exit will be, we’ll uh we will cover other playoff games. Um I’ll be definitely tuning into a lot of Capitals games and, you know, some of the other big games in this series. At least three more. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. At least three more. Um but anyways, again, shout out to all you guys. Over 2K subs now. Yes. Smash that like button if you haven’t already on the stream. Subscribe to the channel. So, Isa, you didn’t schedule the game six stream yet. I know. I know. We’ll get it up. We’ll get it up. Uh, bingo. No worries. Uh, me. That’s the No, no, no. Isa, you’re reading way too fast. You’re basically pulling a quali. You said bingo. Hoppy just worries me that the Oh, that the wick is winding down. Yeah. And the wick is winding down. I don’t know how you pulled No worries out of that. It’s because the wick is winding down. That is why. If the sends come back, spoke Z might have a phenomenal spoke Z, bro. Like, yes, we will have a [ __ ] party, Cole. I don’t know who will be happier between you and him. I actually lean him. I mean, he is cuz he is he also like kind of rooting for the Sens. Like for me, it’s like I’m rooting for the Sens because they’re against the Leafs, not because I really care about the Sens. I think it’s partially that, but I think it’s also like you hate the Leafs, but you hate them from afar. Like you’re not going headtohead with them. Whereas he’s the one who year after year embarrasses them and he just relishes in the fact that even with the Bruins being garbage this year, he still gets to watch the Leafs sucker suffer. You know, that’s that’s that’s your hate is deeper rooted. His is just closer to home. Yeah. Yeah. No, that’s fair. That’s fair. So like it might be like even it might be like even but still I dig it. Yeah. I I mean it would it would it it is written like it’s almost like a prophecy. Uh a yearly prophecy. Straight up, dude. If I’m a Leafs fan, I’m [ __ ] my pants after this game. Like that that’s not me like trying to be mean to like try and get Leaf fans riled up. History is history and to it doesn’t matter what the team is to lose way in a game five that you want to come close out and again the fourth one is always the hardest one to get straight up but they were feeling pretty good coming into that game and they do not feel good they do not feel good now le fans are already burning jersey saw on Twitter see like I’m I I I hate that though because that’s like one or two fans who are absolute [ __ ] you know, like and I get it. It’s fun if you hate them to like leech onto that and use that as a reason to hate, but it obviously doesn’t reflect the whole fan base. If you judge Wild based on their worst 5% of fans, I wouldn’t associate with the Wild because I would be terrified of what people would think of me because of it. I mean, say the same thing about connection. Hobby wouldn’t be doing every fan base. Every fan base, the worst five to like 20% are insufferable. Yeah. But you can’t judge them on their worst. Yeah. Trade. You also can’t judge them on their best. You got to find trade. Trade Gustin. Everybody, give me the median and tell me what that looks like and that will tell me everything I need to know about your fan base. I almost now want to do a study on just find like the worst things or most like annoy. Yeah, we’ll put in like the worst carry things posted by like the worst of the fan base and then just actually find out who which one which one posts the the more cringe slash reactionary crazy things, but it’s probably still going to be a Canadian market, but which one? I mean, Kucks burnt the city to the ground twice, [Music] so might still have to go with Vancouver. Um, anyways, last few comments here, then we’ll hang up the skates, guys. Uh, we could play Kane’s next when we eliminate the Habs. Uh, my favorite bit is the guy that has Leaf season tickets and hates the Leafs wears the oppo the opposing jersey to every game. I did not even know that that that was the person who existed. That is my new favorite Canadian, my new favorite hockey fan. Oh my god. I have to reach out to this guy just to shake his hand. Oh my goodness, that is amazing. Saw it on the Dangles podcast. Holy, I gotta I gotta figure out who this guy is. And like I said, shake his hand. I’ve been on the Gus I’ve been a Gusbust defender since day one, dude. I know Hot Tax. Remember last summer when everyone was [ __ ] hating on him, you and I, and we usually we usually don’t agree on much, but we were both were like, “Yep, yep.” And Hoppy definitely was on that train as well. Again, it was mostly I think just a loud minority. Oh. All right, guys. It’s getting late. It’s not quite uh 1 uh 1:15 or 110, but we’re getting there. We’re getting there. So, thank you again to everybody watching. Uh thanks again to Hoppy for jumping on. Thanks again to Dev who jumped on. He’s uh he’s already in bed now. Tough loss for the Wild. Uh but overall, again, not the worst performance in the series. Overall still tight back and forth Wild comeback St. Paul down but definitely not out of it. Definitely not out of it just yet. Uh like I said we’ll continue to cover uh Minnesota Wild playoffs. We’ll continue to cover the Stanley Cup playoffs. Uh the podcast will continue to roll out. Brett and myself will be back tomorrow for Wildly Informed. Uh we’ll be covering the Thursday game and uh Jud’s Buds back next Monday as well. Um, so that’s going to do it.
